lucinda

stop alongside the road to buy some honey and fresh peaches
driving dad's red convertible, your hands are always reaching
we would make love, the only love our love has ever known, and we'd be safe
and i'd be saved but you must

go to your grave again, Lucinda, and i'll take back my name
gently the summer comes to haunt me in memory of our claim
autumn be nigh and winter yonder far beyond the bay
i will hold on to you no longer, wash away

summertime came and left us living memories of the shore
we would by silver rings and all our favorite things in mexico
saving up miles for paris, holding out for rome and we'd be safe
and you'd be saved but you must

go to your grave again, Lucinda, and i'll take back my name
gently the summer comes to haunt me in memory of our claims
autumn be nigh and winter yonder far beyond the bay
i will hold on to you no longer, wash away

seven years in the making all the waiting comes to this

go to your grave again, Lucinda, and i'll take back my name
gently the summer comes to haunt me in memory of our claims
autumn be nigh and winter yonder far beyond the bay
i will hold on to you no longer, wash away
