Genevieve Lyrics by Broken Edge

Time for a Change

0

Father's just a voice
That you talk to
On the telephone
And Mother's wrapped up
In some kind of business
She's better left alone
Modern mom and dad
Don't know what to say
They're always too busy
Or so far away
Modern mom and dad
They love you so
And they're holding out hope
For your tomorrow
Genevieve
What's a young girl to do?
Oh, Genevieve
There's only so much
Mom and dad can do
Fifteen years old
Doing hard time
The learning wrong from right
Dreaming of places
You gotta to be
In the heat of the night
You try so hard
To make us see
That you're so much older than you appear to be
You're hoping to find
A woman in you
You know you'll do anything that I tell you to do
Genevieve
It's all up to you
Oh, Genevieve
There's only so much
Mom and dad can do
Growing up
In the middle of a danger zone
You're growing up
It's make it or break it
With this desperate crowd
And this town is tough
And tougher when you're on your own
So please
Don't you leave, Genevieve
All alone
Oh, Genevieve
My Genevieve
Oh, Genevieve
My Genevieve, yeah
Don't leave, oh, oh, now
My Genevieve
Genevieve
