Lyrics

from the official live news page

BUT GENEVIEVE (2020)

Genevieve, I think you're lovely
I made you cry, I made you mine
Genevieve, I think you're lovely
But Genevieve, it's time

It’s all electric
There were sparks and then there weren’t
You took the bridge
You took the bridge and it is burnt

Genevieve, I think you're lovely
I made you cry, I made you mine
Genevieve, I think you're lovely
But Genevieve, it's time
