Background
During writing songs for his second album, Evans began experimenting with writing songs much shorter than he typically had. This lead him to wanting to try it out on Wesleigh as well. He made the song the intro, because he felt as though it was a nice way to start off the EP.

Composition
Evergreen (Intro) is a christmas ballad that deals with someone loving you throughout all seasons of your life. Evans wanted to go back to his early writing stages, before he used chord progressions, for this song. He came up with a rhythm on the piano, and expanded on it throughout the song. The song is written the key of Ab Major at 74 beats per minute, and lasts for 1 minute and 48 seconds.

Lyrics
The temperature is falling

The plants are starting to die

And the sky looks grey

Things are looking hopeless

And it's looking like you might leave me

Until you turned and said

that your love for me was nothing like the oak trees

It is more like the evergreens

Staying lush and lively

When everything else is dreary
