Lucy Brown

(album: The Interchange - 1991)

In a lonely railway station
There's a man who sits and wonders
If he ever will be going home again
And his eyes can still remember
As he sees the faded picture
Of the girl who said she'd always be his friend
So he lights another cigarette
And wonders if she'll ever get the message
In the letter that he sent

Lucy Brown
We been so long apart now I'm crying
I'm going down
Though I'm trying
Feel I'm dyin'!
Lucy Brown
Now we're so far apart feel I'm sinking
Since I been gone
I been thinking
Can't help thinking
Of Lucy Brown

Well he hasn't got the money
To get back to the city
So he sits alone and stares into the floor
Then he hears a whistle blowing
As a train pulls in the station
And he looks up and she's standing by the door
And she smiles at him so sweetly
As she's holding up the letter
And he looks at her and says to her once more

Lucy Brown
We been so far apart now I'm crying
I been so down
I was trying
I was dying
Lucy Brown
We been so far apart I been sinking
Since I been gone
I been thinking
Can't help thinking
Of Lucy Brown

Lucy Brown
We been so long apart now I'm crying
I'm going down
Though I'm trying
Feel I'm dyin'!
Lucy Brown
Now we're so far apart feel I'm sinking
Since I been gone
I been thinking
Can't help thinking
Of Lucy Brown
