Adeline Troutman - Ode to Evelyn

I noticed you were the talk of the town
When the sun went down last night
Oh Evelyn I'd give you everything
If you'd hold me in your arms
'Real tight
To breathe my loss is more than fame
To utter love's more sweet than pain
To breathe my loss is more than fame
To utter love's more sweet than pain
The smoke, the glamour, the flash of the cameras
They don't mean shit to me
Let's get out of this town
Baby, we're on fire
Don't care if they see
Hollywood's too small
For the both of us, you see
I don't care about the papers
I just want us to be free
Sick of kissin' in the bathroom stalls
And hidin' love in parlor walls
And watchin' you go home with him
When your real home's here with me
Evelyn I've held you dear
Waited here for all these years
Call my name out in the crowd
Baby, set me free
To breathe my loss is more than fame
To utter love's more sweet than pain
To breathe my loss is more than fame
To utter love's more sweet than pain
The smoke, the glamour, the flash of the cameras
They don't mean shit to me
Let's get out of this town
Baby, we're on fire
Don't care if they see
My dearest Evelyn
How did we make such a mess of it all?
And what does it mean
That we haven't spoken in a decade
But I still hear your voice in my head every day?
I blamed you for the things you Did to keep our secrets
But all of my happiest moments were orchestrated by you
You hurt me
You left me
You destroyed me
But I still love you
The smoke, the glamour, the flash of the cameras
They don't mean shit to me
Let's get out of this town
Baby, we're on fire
Don't care if they see
To breathe my loss is more than fame
To utter love's more sweet than pain
To breathe my loss is more than fame
To utter love's more sweet than pain
