Mickey Newbury – Genevieve lyrics
Genevieve, Genevieve,
What does it all mean to you?
Genevieve, Genevieve,
My heart is breaking in two.
Goodbye, so long,
I will never be this hurt again.
Oh, Genevieve, Genevieve,
See how the mornin's begin.
Well, wouldn't it be nice,
If I could say, "What the hell, it's been fun."
But, Genevieve, Genevieve,
You're leavin' me leaves me undone.
So my old friend, the highway,
I will cry on your shoulder again.
Oh, Genevieve, Genevieve,
Here's where the story begins.
Laughin' like a fool,
Till I was no longer able to breathe.
A broken-down, shell of a man,
And his woman and me.
Stopped at a cafe,
They would not let us come in.
Oh, Genevieve, Genevieve,
See how the madness begins.
Genevieve,
I just had to see you somehow.
Oh, the years have been kind, you
Were never as lovely as now.
And closing my eyes,
I can almost be with you again.
But Genevieve, Genevieve,
Here's where the story will end.
What does it all mean to you?
Genevieve, Genevieve,
My heart is breaking in two.
Goodbye, so long,
I will never be this hurt again.
Oh, Genevieve, Genevieve,
See how the mornin's begin.
Well, wouldn't it be nice,
If I could say, "What the hell, it's been fun."
But, Genevieve, Genevieve,
You're leavin' me leaves me undone.
So my old friend, the highway,
I will cry on your shoulder again.
Oh, Genevieve, Genevieve,
Here's where the story begins.
Laughin' like a fool,
Till I was no longer able to breathe.
A broken-down, shell of a man,
And his woman and me.
Stopped at a cafe,
They would not let us come in.
Oh, Genevieve, Genevieve,
See how the madness begins.
Genevieve,
I just had to see you somehow.
Oh, the years have been kind, you
Were never as lovely as now.
And closing my eyes,
I can almost be with you again.
But Genevieve, Genevieve,
Here's where the story will end.
