Genivieve Lyrics by Eric Bachmann

To the Races

0

Tenderly she lays on a pedestal I made

For beneath her I have come to watch her breath

But I must walk away, 'cause I know that when she wakes

From her dreams I'm not the one her heart will seek

What I cannot have I do not need

So I wont be goin' up to see Genivieve, Genivieve, Genivieve

Every night's the same

I walk to her iron gate

And as the train goes by I sneak inside to see

Well, maybe I'm no good at givin' up a thing I should

Set it free the one for one's so out of reach

But when the lights go out on Barboro Street

I just close my eyes and start to dream

Of Genivieve, Genivieve, Genivieve, Genivieve
