GENEVIEVÈ DEL I

[GENEVIEVÈ]
I've seen pain and I've seen blood
The child I was has long been gone
I gave my soul to the angel
Before I'll let the darkness take my light

Oft I've heard of Genevievé
The girl with beauty of an angel
And I'd give him everything
Before the darkness falls

And I won't regret anything
I'd give my soul to him
If I knew he was true
I'd give my heart to him

And when I've crossed the line
I chanced to see the beauty of the dawn
The beautiful girl
No friend, no lover Genevievé knew
She dwelt where she'd never be seen
The purest thing that the Saxton family
Have ever known
In the lands of Marcia

They may still hear of the beautiful girl
The princess without a kingdom
But the fair face of Genevievé Bridge-Cleveland
Will never more be seen in the lands of Marcia
"Tonight will be a stormy night
To the other side of the barrier, we must go
And take care, my daughter, and be careful
There are demons out there at night."
"That, father, I promise you I'll do
This scary time of night
The clock has just struck ten
And bright is the moon"

And at those words, my father turned his head
The kindling for the night
He plied his work; and I took my little sisters hand
And my brother took one of the lanterns in his hand
And careful through the snow
The way, to the barrier we broke
Our feet dispersed the powdery winter snow
That spread into smoke
