Lyrics:
Wars are won
By those who quit
And leave dead dreams behind
And chores get done
When one forgets
How the time is ticking by
Genevieve come home
Walk across this stoop
Walk across this springtime floor
Genevieve come home
I’ve been taking care
Finally got my act together
We were betrayed
By common sense
The wild chance we never got
Hide nor hair
An empty nest
So much politeness,
Gone amok
Genevieve come home
Walk across this stoop
Walk across this summer floor
Genevieve come home
I baked your favorite bread
It’s true this river, yearns to flow
That ancient trail
Past the rock slide
I walked it just the other day
Bowlin’ over
This highland rover
The heart,
The land
We knew the best
Genevieve come home
Walk across this stoop
Walk across this autumn floor
Genevieve come home
Brush burned brown
Forgive those roads, gone down before
Inst.
And you're the only one I’ve ever known
That gets a leg full of mosquito bites
In the time it takes to tie your shoe
And you're the only one I’ve ever known
That swayed and shook
When we kept it simple, pure and true
And you're the only one I’ve ever known
Who knew exactly what she needed
Called me from Dublin, didn’t have a clue
Genevieve come home
Walk across this stoop
Walk across this wintered floor
Genevieve come home
Got on your favorite shirt
It’s true my mind burns different now
It’s true my mind burns different

Bastano i primi accordi di "Genevieve" per capire che questo è uno degli album più belli degli ultimi anni, non ho parole❤
Grazie

Truly this song can easly take you away from this cruel world to a world of a beuaty and serenity. A mesmorasing song indeed.

What a fantastic song! You are truly amazing! This unique sense of infinity that can be felt through the music is both gentle and powerful as a wave. I love how the lyrics fit so well for the beautiful scenery. It reminds me of distant times of my childhood for some reason as I would wander through similar landscapes and think about the meaning behind this life. I also love the backing vocals by Jana Beltran! For a moment I even thought that it was Carla singing! As I listened with my eyes closed, I could feel a truly strong connection to nature and all the years growing up listening to your music. You always manage to keep that secret ingredient in your songs. I know that it is called "sincerity". It is a gem of a song and a masterpiece that keeps playing in one's head long after the song is over. Thank you so much for another miracle in our lives!

So much beauty. Puts me in mind of Mark Lanegan. And that's a very good thing.
