Songs Title:the ballad of lucy jordan |
[00:11.06] |
The morning sun touched lightly on the eyes of lucy jordan |
[00:21.85] |
In a white suburban bedroom in a white suburban town |
[00:32.27] |
As she lay there neath the covers dreaming of a thousand lovers |
[00:40.57] |
Till the world turned to orange and the room went spinning round. |
[00:45.99] |
At the age of thirty-seven she realised shed never |
[00:56.24] |
Ride through paris in a sports car with the warm wind in her hair. |
[01:06.84] |
So she let the phone keep ringing and she sat there softly singing |
[01:14.42] |
Little nursery rhymes shed memorised in her daddys easy chair. |
[01:23.66] |
Her husband, hes off to work and the kids are off to school, |
[01:31.14] |
And there are, oh, so many ways for her to spend the day. |
[01:40.19] |
She could clean the house for hours or rearrange the flowers |
[01:46.67] |
Or run naked through the shady street screaming all the way. |
[01:56.43] |
At the age of thirty-seven she realised shed never |
[02:02.86] |
Ride through paris in a sports car with the warm wind in her hair |
[02:11.36] |
So she let the phone keep ringing as she sat there softly singing |
[02:21.03] |
Pretty nursery rhymes shed memorised in her daddys easy chair. |
[02:29.45] |
The evening sun touched gently on the eyes of lucy jordan |
[02:43.06] |
On the roof top where she climbed when all the laughter grew too loud |
[02:51.22] |
And she bowed and curtsied to the man who reached and offered her his hand, |
[03:05.20] |
And he led her down to the long white car that waited past the crowd. |
[03:14.04] |
At the age of thirty-seven she knew shed found forever |
[03:22.78] |
As she rode along through paris with the warm wind in her hair ... |
