Lift up your head
Wash off
your mascara
Here take
my Kleenex
Wipe that
lipstick away
Show me your face
clean as the mornin'
I know things
were bad
but now they're okay
Suddenly Seymour
is standing beside you
You don't need
no makeup
Don't have to
pretend...
Suddenly Seymour is
here to provide you
Sweet understanding
Seymour's your friend
Nobody ever
treated me kindly
Daddy left early
Mama was poor
I'd meet a man
and I'd
follow him blindly
He'd snap his fingers
Me, I'd say sure
Suddenly Seymour
is standin' beside me
He don't
give me orders
He don't
condescend...
Suddenly Seymour is
here to provide me
Sweet understanding
Seymour's my friend
Tell me this feeling'll
last till forever
Tell me the bad times
are clean washed away
Please understand
that it's still strange
and fright'nin'
For losers
like I've been
it's so hard to say
Suddenly Seymour
He purified me
Suddenly Seymour
He showed me
I can.....
Learn how
to be more
The girl that's
inside me
With sweet
understanding
With sweet
understanding
With sweet
understanding
With sweet
understanding
With sweet
understanding
Seymour's your
man..........
