Geraldine

Glasvegas, "Geraldine"



For Spudsy, a dedicated social worker and real-life hero.
When your sparkle evades your soul
I'll be at your side to console
When you're standing on the window ledge
I'll talk you back, back from the edge

I will turn, I will turn your tide
Be your shepherd, as well be your guide
When you're lost in your deep and darkest place around
May my words walk you home safe and sound

When you say that I'm no good and you feel like walking
I need to make sure you know it's just the prescription talking
When your feet decide to walk you on the wayward side
Climbing up upon the stairs and down the downward slide

I will turn, I will turn your tide
Do all that I can to heal you inside
I will be the angel on your shoulder
My name is Geraldine; I'm your social worker

I see you need me
I know you do
I see you need me
I know you do
I know you do

I will turn, I will turn your tide
Do all that I can to heal you inside
I will be the angel on your shoulder
My name is Geraldine; I'm your social worker
