Evangeline Lyrics - One Time One Night: Live Recordings, Vol. 1 - Los Lobos

Dude: you ready? 

Kef: yeah yeah 

Dude: alright, we're rollin' 

Kef: if you show me something precious, 

I will show you someone blue, 

And we'll calculate what drives me straight to you 

The fascination kindled like a spark becomes a flame, 

And then the fire thickens, 

And my heart quickens, 

Every measure i hear your name 

Evangeline 

Evangeline 

Well can you feature an adorable creature 

More appealing than this world has ever seen? 

Evangeline 

Evangeline 

Her face made equal to the minature features 

Of a hand-made porcelain figurine

Dude: did you just say 'porcelain figurine?' 

Kef: well, yeah. there's only a handful of words you can rhyme with- y'know what? just don't worry about it. 

Dude: right. 

Kef: if i ever fall abandoned on a desert made in blue, 

I would only wish to spend each day with you 

Essential artless charm from which impossible to wean 

It only amplifies those lips those eyes and every freckle that's in between 

Evangeline 

Evangeline 

Far more beauty in a single view than on the pages of a fashion magazine 

Evangeline 

Evangeline 

Can you feature an adorable creature more appealing than this world has ever seen? 

Evangeline 

And you know i'd never forget you 

Until i have you in my arms 

Dude: uh dude, she's gonna think you're a stalker...

Kef: i'm trying to do a solo here 

Dude: yeah but i mean, you should think about how this is gonna be perceived because i mean, it's a little... crazy you know? 

I recognize and risk absurdity to call your name this way 

But i fear there might not be another way 

Effortless sparkle shines around the angel in your name, 

And if i never laid my eyes on you i know i wouldn't be the same

Far more beauty in a single view than on the pages of a fashion magazine 

Evangeline 

Evangeline 

To spend an hour in the grip of your power could make any other moment feel a little routine 

Evangeline 

Evangeline 

If i imagine any kind of beauty pageant you are making all adjacent competition look obscene 

Evangeline 

Evangeline 

How could i ever fabricate another woman as my lover there's no other one i'd rather here to be 

Evangeline 

Dude: (laughs) you are such a jackass! 

Kef: yeah, okay, you don't have to- 

Dude: (singing) evangeliiiiiine!

Dude: (singing) i love yooou! 

Kef: alright, fine! 

Dude: (still singing): will you come back pleeeeease?!
