"Hey Lucinda" lyrics

"Hey Lucinda"

Hey Lucinda, won't you come out drinking with me tonight?
The summer's almost gone
Hey Lucinda, time's running out
Hey Lucinda, our time is running out

I'm getting tired of those guys, tonight I'm gonna stay home
I'm tired of hanging out, maybe I'll just stay home tonight

When will you learn, Lucinda, that feeling is a creeping one

So, hey Lucinda, won't you come out drinking with me tonight?
The summer's almost gone
And soon the path that leads to your house will be treacherous with the frost
And I may get lost in these cold and lonely nights

I could drink all this body could hold
But for the fear I might fall over and break these brittle bones
And these dirty little cigarettes we smoke
And the liquor it just only throws a cloak over the feelings we should show

But, hey Lucinda
I may be waiting for you
Time's running out
But hey Lucinda
I may be waiting for you
Our time is running out

Hey Lucinda, won't you come out drinking with me tonight?
Yeah, we could find some dancing

I only dance to remember how dancing used to feel
And I wake up every morning to find you waiting for me
Time's a wasting Lucinda, those college guys
They'll be changing all the records, sitting in our favourite spot
But they drink to the future, not to forget the past

But, hey Lucinda
I may be waiting for you
Time's running out
I may be waiting for you
But, hey Lucinda
Our time is running out
