Dear Genevieve

My heart skipped beat
Early in the morning
Oh my, dear Genevieve
I've so much to say
I will let you sleep
And wait until the morning
And when you open your eyes
I'll introduce you to the day
You look oh so sweet
I can't believe we've finally met
You have got me wrapped
Around your little finger
Oh my, dear Genevieve
I've so much to say
You'll never let me sleep
You are always calling
When I look into your eyes you smile
The world is Ok
You look oh so sweet
I can't believe we've finally met
Please remember that I'll always love you girl
This feeling in my heart
It will always stay
One day you won't need me like you do right now
I'll always be there for you come-what-may
And don't you know this world can be so cruel
It can eat you up and treat you like a fool
So let me lead the way and take my hand
Then go your own way once you understand
I'll hold you in my arms
Late into the evening
Oh my, dear Genevieve
I could spend all day
Talking all about this great future that you have
Promise me whatever you do, you do it your way
You look oh so sweet
I can't believe we've finally met
Please remember that I'll always love you girl
This feeling in my heart
It will always stay
One day you won't need me like you do right now
I'll always be there for you come-what-may
You look oh so sweet
I can't believe we've finally met

Are We Nearly There Yet?

I wanna get away
For a little holiday
We can head up there in the car
We don't have to go too far
It is nice to have a change
Is my sentiment so insane
I wanna get away
I want a family holiday
We'll head towards the sea
And we can travel happily
We will grab a bag of chips
Walk in the sand and feel oh so free
We've saved up for weeks on weeks
So we don't have to go off-peak
I do like to be
I like to be besides the sea
But it'll rain all weekend and we'll get wet
The kids shout are we nearly there yet?
Our little get away there on the coast
Full English breakfast with tea and toast
I recall a time
When the weather was fine
we'd play crazy golf first thing
And in the evening everybody would sing (a la-di-la-di-da)
We'd watch a contest based on talent
And our clapping made the victor apparent
The memories are mine
And they are oh so fine
But it'll rain all weekend and we'll get wet
The kids shout are we nearly there yet?
Our little get away there on the coast
Full English breakfast with tea and toast
Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba
Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba
Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba
Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba
We had a lovely time away
On our little holiday
We saw a show on stage
We didn't act our age
We paddled in the sea (how do they make the letters go right through)
In the amusements we were on a run (the stick of rock I bought for you)
Counting our pennies in the evening sun
We had a lovely time away
On our family holiday
But it'll rain all weekend and we'll get wet
The kids shout are we nearly there yet?
Our little get away there on the coast
Full English breakfast with tea and toast
Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba
Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba
Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba
Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba

Sorry Suzanne

I'm Sorry Suzanne, now what did I say?
Whatever it was wasn't meant that way
I'm no good at telling lies
You can see it here in my eyes
Please listen when I tell you that I'm sorry Suzanne
My love for you is getting outta hand
Tell me what it was you wanted to hear
Given what I've said don't you think that's fair
You are playing on my heart strings
To me your love is everything
Please listen when I tell you that I'm sorry Suzanne
My love for you is getting outta hand
Time goes by quite naturally
I'm so blind but I can now see
I gave you my all you gave it away
I'm not ready to leave you today
Please listen when I tell you that I'm sorry Suzanne
My love for you is getting outta hand
Please listen when I tell you that I'm sorry Suzanne
My love for you is getting outta hand
I know that I've made mistakes and its true
But my Suzanne I still love
My Suzanne I still love
My Suzanne I still love
My Suzanne I still love
My Suzanne I still love you.
