Goodbye evergreen, goodbye evergreen
(Goodbye evergreen) Goodbye evergreen

You know I love you

You know I love you (You know I love you)
You know I love you
(Goodbye evergreen) Goodbye evergreen
You know I love you (You know I love you)
You know I love you
(Goodbye evergreen) Goodbye evergreen
You know I love you (You know I love you)
You know I love you
Goodbye evergreen (Goodbye evergreen)
Goodbye evergreen
(You know I love you)
[Outro]
You know I love you
You know I love you
You know I love
