lyrics

You know it's cruel to keep me hanging on
You know it's cruel to say you love me

I know there's so much I can fake
And only so much you can break
And I can't do this anymore

So you can take it if you want it
I have nothing to lose
I may as well give up

One for the road my friend
It takes two to, two to tango
One for the road my friend

I know there's so much you could say to push these fears of mine away
but I don't know if you want to

So you can take it if you want it
I have nothing to lose
I may as well give up

This time we must walk away
From these broken vows and long-gone days

Here I go again I see
I thought that lesson learnt for me
Two steps and I've fallen on the floor

He's a traveling gypsy
A romantic tryst he's
Just passing through

But it ain't over until we work this out
There's something about
His smile I don't doubt

Here I go again I see
I thought that lesson learnt for me
Two steps and I've fallen on the floor

He's a man of mystery
And when he kisses me
He melts my heart

But it ain't over until we work this out
There's something about
His smile that I don't doubt

One for the road my friend
It takes two to, two to tango my friend
Three sails to the wind
Down on all fours

'Cos I'm a whistling dixie
And you're a manic pixie
Dream girl here I come
'Cos you know
It ain't over 'til the fat lady sings
This will work when pigs have wings

Here we are again my friend
Three sails to the wind

about

Jean-Michel George image

Jean-Michel George Paris, France

Like stepping stones in a storm-tossed sea
These hand-picked songs propound to be
The safest path from you to me ...

Anglo-French composer, songwriter and singer.

Using film references, humour, nostalgia and stories with a twist as building blocks, my music is the by-product of a life spent swinging from soundtracks to pop, classical to EDM, jazz to new-wave

I hope you enjoy this selection ... more
