Dancing Lucinda

When she was a young girl
Her mother said, «You and me are the same
And you will grow to be someone powerful
Come inside from the rain»
Her daughter’s laugh was like a mad child
Do exactly what mother’d say
But in her mind she’s chasing butterflies and dreams and hopes
And taking walks in the rain
Butterfly me away
And I, I wanna be happier this time
Tell me I’m not that way
I, I wanna be happier this time
Take a walk in the rain
Take a walk in the rain
Her body grew to be beautiful
While her mind it grew insane
And all this time she only wants to be alone
And take walks in the rain
To take a walk in the rain
She is Dancing Lucinda
She’s paid her dues now for her fame
On a dark stage with most of her clothes off
Walking home in the rain
Walk home now in the rain
And I, I wanna be happier this time
Tell me I’m not that way
I, I wanna be happier this time
Take a walk in the rain
Take a walk in the rain
A new road it lies before her
It stretches on like summer dies
The broken hearts, they lie as far as the eye can see
But Lucinda will find a way
To make it home in the rain
She spends her days now in the garden
I can see she has pain
She’s pulling weeds now so her flowers will grow up tall
And take water when it rains
Walk home now in the rain
And I, I wanna be happier this time
Tell me I’m not that way
I, I wanna be happier this time
Take a walk in the rain
Take a walk in the rain
Take a walk in the rain
Take a walk in the rain
Take a walk in the rain
Take a walk in the rain
Take a walk in the rain
