about

Lonna wrote this song about her grandma, sweetly sentimental.

lyrics

Genevieve of the sweet hazel eyes
Reflection of you through family ties
Sure have missed your beautiful smile
So won’t you sit and talk for awhile

Tell me everywhere you’ve been
And all about your newfound friends
It’s good to see you finally traveling
And, Lord, it’s good to see you again

Did you finally get to see
Stars shining on the Irish sea
Do you waltz among the stars
And do you think of me where you are

Genevieve of the sad sweet eyes
Heaven gained another angel the day you died
I sure have missed your beautiful smile
So won’t you sit with me for awhile

Won’t you do me a favor sweet Genevieve
And say hello to our family tree
I’d love to reminisce about our kin
And, Lord, it’s good to see you again

When you’re drifting on the sea
Please say a little prayer for me
And our family

Did you finally get to see
Stars shining on the Irish sea
Do you waltz among the stars
And do you think of me

When you’re drifting on the sea
Please say a little prayer for me
And our family

Oh, sweet Genevieve

Wednesday Weekend Newberg, Oregon

Setting its current line-up in 2013, Wednesday Weekend is a Portland-area, piano-pop band. Joel Theophanes heard David Fortmeyer's songs and decided they were too good not to be heard. There was no other choice than to start a band. They found Shannon Eoff (drums) via Craigslist and she introduced Lonna Bowe to the group as an additional vocalist. WW plays live at a variety of venues and events. ... more
