Written in the early 1990’s ~ performed live by Gabrielle Gerard and the Blind Venetians on the 24th street stage ~ I saw her face, I’ll never forget that face Drifting off, Drifting off in the days I’ll never forget, Never forget that face The face that housed that soul, of Adrienne’s way What she had to say I thought I’d never believe What she had to say I thought I would never forgive What she had to say I didn’t want to believe Oh Adrienne’s way I see her walk into the room and I turn and walk away With my hands, With my hands over my ears Then I turn to the window sit and wait, Watch her to return again Anticipating What she had to say I thought I would never forgive (Oh Adrienne’s way) What she had to say I thought I would never believe Adrienne’s way Adrienne’s way I have one job here it’s to wake you up from your morbid dream I’m gonna kick you all around, Kick you all around I have one job here it’s to wake you up from your morbid dream I’m gonna knock on your door–I’ll wait until I score What she had to say I thought I would never forgive I’d thought I’d never forgive I thought I’d never forgive her And finally I asked her in So she took me out and walked to the sea Drew circles in the sand and X’s on the land We drank some wine, shared some bread After awhile we rested Drew circles in the sand and X’s on the land She said, don’t go here don’t go there and everything will be alright Don’t go here and don’t go there and everything will be alright She kissed me and flew to the moon Oh Adrienne’s day and Adrienne way Adrienne’s day and Adrienne way I waited in anticipation All music © Gabrielle ~ the Blind Venetians
