Lucy

Feel So Bad · The Good Son [1990]

Last night I lay trembling

The moon it was low

It was the end of love

Of misery and woe



Then suddenly above me

Her face buried in light

Came a vision of beauty

All covered in white



Now the bell-tower is ringing

And the night has stole past

O Lucy, can you hear me?

Wherever you rest



I'll love her forever

I'll love her for all time

I'll love her till the stars

Fall down from the sky

Now the bell-tower is ringing

And I shake on the floor

O Lucy, can you hear me?

When I call and call



Now the bell-tower is ringing

And the moon it is high

O Lucy, can you hear me

When I cry and cry and cry
