| She drove me far too far
|
| And then I drove her car
|
| The streets were long and wide
|
| I felt I had no place to hide
|
| My courage in a glass
|
| 'Ich liebe', was ist das?
|
| Are you my only friend?
|
| Temptation drives me round the bend
|
| So, take me to the girl that I once knew
|
| Does she know what I’ve been going through?
|
| I’ve been searching for her everywhere
|
| I think my darling thought I didn’t care
|
| Geneva is the city of our love
|
| All these voices calling from above
|
| Now no one can ever take her place
|
| No one in the whole wide human race
|
| Society’s to blame
|
| This picture in a frame
|
| Picasso told me so
|
| I guess he ought to really know
|
| My flesh was always weak
|
| My tango less than chic
|
| Such grandeur took its toll
|
| And left me here, a wretched soul
|
| So, take me to the girl that I once knew
|
| Does she know what I’ve been going through?
|
| I’ve been searching for her everywhere
|
| I think my darling thought I didn’t care
|
| Geneva is the city of our love
|
| All these voices calling from above
|
| Now no one can ever take her place
|
| No one in the whole wide human race |
