Walking around alone in Geneva.

Walking around alone in Geneva,

And all the shops are closed.

Maybe I'll become a grown-up in Geneva.

Maybe I'll become a smoker in Geneva.

Maybe I'll become a carnivore in Geneva.

Maybe I'll forget about you in Geneva.

Maybe I'll fall in love with you in Geneva.

Maybe I'll get lost on the train in Geneva.

Maybe I'll change one day.

I'll have sex in Geneva.

Maybe I'll allow myself to be sad in Geneva.

We just don't know.

You and I just didn't know.

He will look beautiful.

He will be wearing some things that you recognize,
