(Sylvester / Clarke / Hicks) Got a call from the doctor He said hold on my friend You've gotta know what I'm knowing Please come right away
He said Lucy's been seeing me and things just ain't right You'll have to hold things together 'cos Lucy ain't much time
Now should I tell her or keep it inside Making her happy by feeding her lines How am I gonna tell the children that Mama's goin' away I couldn't love another woman Oh Lucy please stay
If I'm gonna lose you after all this time I'm gonna make life more beautiful I'm gonna make you make you feel fine
If we make tomorrow we'll make it better every way We'll keep on building 'cause we're living day to day
chorus
I couldn't love another woman Lucy please stay
Baby baby baby Lucy please oh won't you stay
I need you I need you Please don't go please don't go Lucy please please won't you stay
I want you to know that I love you I love you I'm gonna miss your sweet love Lucy won't you stay
I need you, I need you. Please don't go, please don't go. Lucy, please, please, won't you stay?
I want you to know that I love you. I love you. I'm gonna miss your sweet love. Lucy, won't you stay?
