Halley Elwell - Dear Lucy Lyrics

Dear Lucy
I want to take you out for coffee
I want to chat about the world
About the pills they gave out like candy
I want to talk about mirrors
And not recognizing your own face
About the whistles and the barks
Of pure will and nauseous grace
And give my thanks for what I now see
We are miracles and adapters
Great thinkers and inventors
If not beautiful then certainly attractive
They can't keep their eyes off us after all
Dear Lucy Dear Lucy
I want to tell that interviewer to shut up
About kisses and sexuality
Learn something about disability
But maybe you wouldn't even
Know or think you were disabled
A lot has changed since you've been gone
A whole movement that includes us
If we want if we want
We are miracles and adapters
Great thinkers and inventors
If not beautiful then certainly attractive
They can't keep their eyes off us after all
Dear Lucy Dear Lucy
And maybe the professor in you would
Scratch red lines through my words and
Tell me I've got it all wrong
But mostly I'd like to tell you
You were my beginning
Sincerely Anomaly
