| 作词 : Stewart | |
| Lucy worked a different club every day, | |
| And though she put her mind to it, | |
| Her heart was never in it, | |
| She stayed around just long enough to get paid, | |
| She won't pass the time with you, she can't stay a minute, | |
| And all these changing faces never bothered her at all, | |
| They just existed like a back-drop or a pattern on the wall, | |
| Lucy looks like someone who is waiting for a call, | |
| She knows he'll come, but no-one else can hear at all, | |
| Lucy finds the dressing room and the bar, | |
| Hangs her clothes up, hopes tonight, | |
| The contract won't be broken, | |
| Well, they kick you round so much when you're not a star, | |
| Make you play all night just for a pittance or a token, | |
| But all these imperfections never bothered her at all, | |
| She says it sharpens your perception when your back's against the wall, | |
| There's something that enables her to rise above it all, | |
| To shrug it off, just when it seems to go too far, | |
| Hey, hey, hey, | |
| I think you almost, feel the pain comin' on inside, | |
| Hey, hey, hey, | |
| I think you almost, feel it now and you don't know why, | |
| You don't know why. | |
| The last time that | |
| I saw her she had given up the chase, | |
| Moved away to | |
| California, got a suntan on her face, | |
| She said that life was just another time another space, | |
| It's over now, she learned a lot, it's not a waste, | |
| Hey, hey, hey, | |
| I think you almost, feel the pain comin' on inside | |
| Hey, hey, hey, | |
| I think you almost, feel it now and you don't know why, | |
| Hey, hey, hey, | |
| I think you almost, feel yourself reaching out inside, | |
| Hey, hey, hey, | |
| I think you almost, feel it now and you don't know why. |
