(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?
