Fallen Lucy - A Song

Lucy, was looking into the clouds

Matthew, was looking at Lucy

Lucy was falling into the ground

(Into the ground)

Matthew was diving at the clouds


Lucy fell into the ground

Matthew dived into the clouds

Their worlds circled round each other

the sky, wouldn’t meet the ground

(meet the ground)


Lucy looked at Matt and smiled

held up her hands and caught the sun

and said, this is for you


Matthew looked at Lucy and cried

you gave me the sun

when I fell through the clouds

but I would have been happy

just to have your smile

(to have your smile)


Lucy fell into the ground

Matthew dived into the clouds

Their worlds circled round each other

the sky couldn’t meet the ground

(meet the ground)


Lucy’s smile lit up her face

through Lucy’s lashes Matthew

saw himself reflected

and, echoed Lucy’s smile

(Lucy’s smile…)


but the sun flew out

from Matthews mouth

it was too much for him to bear

and the ground opened up beneath them

and swallowed Lucy whole

(Lucy whole)

Lucy fell into the ground

and Matthew dived into the clouds

Matthew, dived into the clouds

(Into the clouds)


Their worlds circled round each other

the sky wouldn’t meet the ground

sky wouldn’t meet the ground

meet the ground

meet the ground

meet the ground

meet the ground

sky wouldn’t meet the ground
