O Lucy

O LUCY

Ravens over a twilight sky
O Lucy don't you weep
Where the river comes to rise
O Lucy don't you weep
I saw something shimmering beneath the water so deep
O Lucy don't you weep

The Devil and the Holy Ghost
O Lucy don't you weep
Told me who to love the most
O Lucy what to believe
But staring at the murky water it became strangely clear
Lucy, my fortune lay buried here

I dove right in to these dark waters
I'll miss you Lucy and all the sons and daughters
For when the river's mighty arm
Pulls me where the light no longer shines upon

The branches of the willow trees
O Lucy don't you weep
What if there is nothing on the other side for me
Just this quiet river that feeds the infinite sea
O Lucy don't you weep
O Lucy don't you weep
