Lucy - Minor Majority

In the evening when the day goes down

Lucy leaves the city lights

Stands and watches, with her coat pulled around

How the neon hits the skies

Sometimes she thinks she knows him

Sometimes his outline’s just a blur

But he’s always there on her mind

She finds a window seat on the subway home

Places her handbag by her feet

Re-reads a message on her phone

A little something to keep him real

Sometimes she thinks she sees him

Hears the turnstile click behind a blur

As if he’s homebound just like her

Sometimes she thinks she loves him

Sometimes his outline’s just a blur

But he’s always there on her mind

All the changing faces passing through

They never bothered her at all

They’re just a backdrop that ties the light

Into patterns on the wall

Sometimes she thinks she hears him

When the handle turns on their front door

As if he’s there, like before

When you come back home

When you turn the key

Is he still there with you?

Is he within reach?
