Lyrics

La la la, la la la
La la la la la
La la la, la la la la
The clock is ticking
And somewhere rain is falling
The clock is ticking
You don't know it's there
The rain is falling
The sound of shelling
The rain is falling
You don't know it's there
One two three four
One two three
Today will be our final day
Goodbye, my love, goodbye
My heart is true
La la la la
Remember me, remember me
The sound, the rain, the clock, the shelling
And you never know it's there
You only notice when it goes
But Lucy, where have you gone?
My Lucy, and time marches on
And I see you in a vision
But fleeting like a dream
Like sugar into water
Like sugar into water, water
I said I'd wait forever
I promised I'd be true
As unchanging as the sun, the stars, the moon
I would wait for you
And I told no one
This secret love of mine
But I waited till the sun and stars and moon showed me a sign
One two three four
The face of my youth
Five six seven eight
The skin of a young man
You don't even know it's there
You only notice when it goes
The clock is ticking
The clock is ticking
One two three four
One two three four
Every dying man has something to hold
Some kind of longing
Even dying men have some kind of memory
I have nothing
And the rain keeps falling
And it won't stop falling
One two three four
One two three four
Men are marching and the rain is falling
Out of the trenches, into the mountains
Guns are shooting, men are screaming
I am falling, I am falling, I am falling
Soon the rain will melt these men
Like sugar into water
Will you notice them when they are gone?
But then I found you
And you called me by my name
Lucy
And I knew that you and he were both the same
Lucy
Both the same
Are you a dream or a memory that melts away
Like sugar into water?
Were you both the same?
Who am I? Who am I?
I'll wait for you
As long as it takes
La la la la
Although my heart breaks
Even if death should part us
Darling I'll wait
Charlie is asking me for a cigarette
Charlie is from somewhere, now I forget
And I ask if he has a light
The matches are wet from the mud
And you can't 'cause the flame is too bright
And then the light is everywhere
Everywhere, everything, everywhere
Everything is light
And Charlie, Charlie, Charlie
The clock is ticking
The clock is ticking
This is the first time
One two three four
My love, this is the first time
One two three four
Lucy, where are you now?
Lucy, is there a God?
You only notice him when he's gone
Oh Lucy, oh Lucy
You found me in the trenches
And we climbed up into the mountains
And we were drenched from the rain
And you melted like sugar into water
Like sugar into water
Water, water, water
