Lucy Brown Lyrics

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

Chorus:
Lucy Brown,
We been so long apart now I'm cryin'
I'm goin' down
Though I'm tryin'
Feel I'm dyin'!
Lucy Brown
Now we're so far apart feel I'm sinkin',
Since I been gone
I been thinkin',
Can't help thinkin'
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 blowin'
As a train pulls in the station
And he looks up and she's standin' by the door
And she smiles at him so sweetly
As she's holdin' up the letter
And he looks at her and says to her once more
Chorus twice:
Lucy Brown,
We been so far apart now I'm cryin'
I been so down,
I was tryin',
I was dyin'
Lucy Brown,
We been so far apart I been sinkin'
Since I been gone
I been thinkin',
Can't help thinkin'
Of Lucy Brown
