Sweet Lady Genevieve |
| Once under a scarlet sky I told you never ending lies |
| But they were the words of a drunken vagabond |
| Who knew very well he would break your heart before long |
| Oh forgive me Genevieve |
| Now I’ve come back to see Sweet Lady Genevieve |
| This time I’ll give you some security |
| And I will make promises I can keep |
| So will you come back to me Sweet Lady Genevieve |
| Let me rock you, hold you |
| Take you in my arms |
| Forgive me, please |
| Smile away all your sadness, put your trust in me |
| Oh if you come back to me Sweet Lady Genevieve |
| I’m not the impetuous fool that you used to know |
| I know that I used you and I hurt you so |
| But that was so long ago Sweet Lady Genevieve |
| Oh, love me |
| Take me in your arms |
| Let me rock you, hold you |
| Smile away all your sadness, put your trust in me |
| Once under a starry sky I led you on and told you lies |
| Drank too much whiskey on that hot summer night |
| I acted so slyly 'cause you were acting so shy |
| Oh forgive me Genevieve |
| If you come back to me Sweet Lady Genevieve |
| You’re not the child who smiled so innocently |
| And I’m not the rogue that I used to be |
| So will you come back to me Sweet Lady Genevieve |
| Oh Genevieve, Oh Genevieve |
