Title: Evergreen
Artist: Barbra Streisand


Love, soft as an easy chair;
love, fresh as the morning air.
One love that is shared by two,
I have found with you.


Like a rose under the April snow
I was always certain love would grow.
Love ageless and evergreen,
seldom seen by two.





You and I will make each night a first,
ev'ry day a beginning.
Spirits rise and their dance is unrehearsed.
They warm and excite us
'cause we have the brightest love,

two lights that shine as one,
morning glory and midnight sun.
Time we've learned to sail above;
time won't change the meaning of one love,
ageless and ever evergreen.




Evergreen (Love Theme from A Star Is Born)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Evergreen (Love Theme from A Star Is Born)" is the well known theme song from the 1976 film A Star Is Born. It was composed and performed by Barbra Streisand with lyrics by Paul Williams. The song was released on the soundtrack to A Star Is Born.

Streisand earned an Academy Award for Best Original Song, her second overall, as composer of the song. With "Evergreen", Streisand earned a Grammy Award for Song of the Year as well. She and Williams also won Golden Globes in the category of Best Original Song for the song.

The single was a worldwide success, spending three weeks at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and six weeks atop the adult contemporary chart. This was Streisand's second Hot 100 #1 song (following "The Way We Were" in 1974), and her third chart-topper on the adult contemporary chart ("The Way We Were" and 1964's "People").[1]

Streisand also recorded versions of the song in Spanish ("Tema de Amor de Nace Una Estrella"), French ( "De Reve en Reverie"), and Italian ("Sempreverde"). Of these versions, only the Spanish version of the song has been released commercially as a track on the CD single, "I Finally Found Someone", a duet with Bryan Adams and on the import CD version of the "A Star is Born" remastered soundtrack.

The song is mentioned in Julie Brown's 1984 song "The Homecoming Queen's Got A Gun" with the lyrics "The band was playing Evergreen/All of a sudden somebody screamed/'Look out! The homecoming queen's got a gun!'"
