The day that I left Lucy
A tear fell from her eye
Now I don't have nobody, and I was such a fool
On the day that I left Lucy
The day that I left Lucy she cried, then said goodbye
Now it's done, and it's over, and I am all alone
On the day that I left Lucy
(bridge)
Now I don't have anymore songs to sing
'Cause you were everything, everything to me
I didn't realize I felt this way, until that day
Today I'm missing Lucy, and you say that she's OK, I hope she is
Now I don't have nobody and no one will ever replace...
My Lucy
I love Lucy, Lucy...
On the day that I left Lucy… my Lucy
A tear fell from her eye
Now I don't have nobody, and I was such a fool
On the day that I left Lucy
The day that I left Lucy she cried, then said goodbye
Now it's done, and it's over, and I am all alone

I didn't realize I felt this way, until that day

My Lucy
I love Lucy, Lucy...
On the day that I left Lucy… my Lucy

i found this CD at a used CD store, because by the time i got into Hanson... well, it was only last year. i loved this song immediatly. i love Zac's voice, both then and now. i love most of their songs... but this is another of my favorites.
This is by far my favorite Hanson song, so much I have the symbol with 'Lucy' under it. I just always pictured someone having this love for me that he is singing about and my Catholic Saint name is Lucy. So it has always had a double meaning to me and I always imagined him singing it to me, but not the losing her part.
I agree the MONA version of this song is so amazing. I waited for that for so long and to hear Zac grown up singing this song gave me goose bumps and when he sang, 'now i dont have anymore song to sing cuz you're every thing everything to me.' tears came to my eyes. I have just been waiting for him to sing it in concert but no luck yet. =/
awww...Zac was so cute
Yeah, he was. ^_^ It always shocks me when I listen to this song after I haven't heard it for a while. He was so young!
He also has an incredible, unexpected amount of soul for someone his age (then 11). 'Now I don't have anymore songs to sing/Cause you were everything, everything to me.' In that part, especially. Sad, sweet song.
@AliMarie i must agree with you but his brothers wrote it and put Zac's voice to this song and im really surprise this wasn't a hit

How cute is this!!!!
It really is scary to see how much they've grown up. I didn't care for this song, really. I don't know it's the pre-pubesent squeak. lol. It's alright.
such mature lyrics for an 11-year-old. I've always loved this song. It's a different sound then the rest of MoN.
My favourite Hanson song. When I was nine, I used to listen to this on repeat. Now, I'm not sure where my Hanson album is, but still love this song!
Ah, I loved this song when I was little.
I think that it was said that "Lucy" was written as if Schroeder from the Peanuts cartoons was singing it to Lucy. She used to always bother him while he slaved over his piano, and then he'd get frustrated...so, then they wrote it as if she left, and he became lonely... and, well, there you go. It totally fits if you think about it.
and, while Zac was adorable 10 years ago when he sang this, he sounds incredible singing this nowadays - especially on MONA. His falsetto is amazing.
@ggmh28 that is 100% correct the writers saw Zac as Schroeder from Peanuts!
