Eveline Lyrics

Cover art for Eveline lyrics by Nickel Creek

I have been listening to this song for years and it wasn't until I read the story 'Eveline' in english class that I understood what its about. It's all about how she has to decide between staying at home with her abusive family to take care of them like she had promised her mother on her deathbed she would, or run away with her lover. In the end she chooses to stay.
