Whoa, oh, oh, yeah
Mmm, hmm Sylvia
You know you're getting to me now
Mmm, mmm, mmm, Sylvia
You gently touched my heart somehow
Yesterday you made me happy as a child at play
Just like the summer sun that warms my heart
And move on, now you are gone
Whoa, oh, oh, Sylvia
You're everything that I adore
That sweet song, that caught a spark in me more
Tenderly that's how you whisper that you loved me
As if a raindrop kissed my ear and disappeared, now you are gone
Oh, oh, oh, yeah
You know I love my little Sylvia
Whoa, oh, oh, yeah
And yesterday I feel in love with you all the way
Tenderly you lit a spark in my heart, now you are gone
Mmm, hmm, Sylvia
I gently miss Sylvia
I'm crazy 'bout ya, Sylvia
You look just like Sylvia:
Well you look like her to me -
the way she wore her hair then.
Oh, the way she used to be.
I've not seen her for a long time
though I've heard she's still around.
Her father's living with some girl
who's a year younger than her.
She's living in the country now yeah.
Oh, she's trying to get better.
Her beauty was her only crime.
Yeah, I remember Sylvia.
*So keep believing & do what you do,
I can't help you but I know things are gonna get better.
& please stop asking
what it's got to do with you.
Oh, keep believing 'cos you know that you deserve better.
Who's this man you're talking to?
Can't you see what he wants to do?
He thinks if he stands near enough then he will look as good as you.
Oh, he don't care about your problems. He just wants to show his friends.
I guess I'm just the same as him -
I just didn't know it then.
I never understood you really
& I know it's too late now.
You didn't ask to be that way.
Oh, I'm sorry Sylvia.
So keep believing & do what you do,
I can't help you but I know things are gonna get better.
Yeah you know that you deserve better.
Früher hatte sie ein weißes Kleid
mit roten Blumen drauf
Heute passt sie leider nicht mehr rein
dabei sah es so gut aus
Früher lachte sie sehr oft und viel
heute weint sie jeden Tag
Sie ist einsam, sie hat keine Freunde,
weil niemand mehr sie mag
Sie ist zu dick, viel zu dick
Und sie weiß, dass sie nirgends Chancen hat
Zu dick, viel zu dick... ...oh Sylvia
Früher war sie in der Schule gut
und sie hatte tolle Noten
Heute schafft sie leider keine Prüfung
und gehört zu den Idioten
Den Führerschein hat sie auch nicht geschafft,
dafür war sie viel zu dumm
Als sie das allererste Mal im Auto saß
fuhr sie einen Polizisten um
Sie ist zu dumm, viel zu dumm
Doch sie weiß, dass sie keine Chancen hat
Zu dumm, viel zu dumm... ...oh Sylvia
Keine Chance für Sylvia
Früher hatte sie mal gute Augen
heute sieht sie fast nichts mehr
Sie trägt eine ziemlich dicke Brille
doch die stört sie sehr
Neulich ließ sie ihre Brille mal zu Hause
'ne Laterne kreuzte ihre Spur
Sie sah Sterne als sie auf die Straße fiel
und ein LKW sie überfuhr
Sie war zu blind, viel zu blind
Und sie hatte keine Chance
Zu blind, viel zu blind... ...oh Sylvia
Sylvia is missing
Dark stars tattooed across her face
Tiny bruises black and blue
The dedication on her arm
Reads "Love and hate", yeah, yeah
Passing through the underground
Sylvia is coming down
The queen has lost her crown today
She wants to fall into a deep, deep sleep
So she can forget herself
She wants to fall into a deep, deep sleep
So she can forget herself
Run away to London
Lipstick tainted powered painted
Perfume in her hair
Run away to London
A thousand cold caresses
Couldn't keep her there, yeah, yeah
The fingerprints of strangers
On the ugly bedroom floor
Reveal the only traces of what Sylvia is for
She wants to fall into a deep, deep sleep
So she can forget herself
She wants to fall into a deep, deep sleep
So she can forget her self
Passing through the underground
Sylvia is coming down
The queen has lost her crown today
She wants to fall into a deep, deep sleep
So she can forget herself
She wants to fall into a deep, deep sleep
So she can forget herself
She wants to fall into a deep, deep sleep
So she can forget herself
She wants to fall into a deep, deep sleep
So she can forget herself
She wants to fall into a deep, deep sleep
So she can forget herself
She wants to fall into a deep, deep sleep

Sylvia
Sylvia, turn me loose
You gotta gotta turn me loose
You treat me so bad
You're the meanest pet I've ever had
You're spendin' all my money
Drivin' my new car
Scratchin' all my records
Playin' my guitar
I don't know how I got myself into this mess
I was lost I didn't know what to do I
Wasn't looking at all, I wasn't looking for you
But ain't it just so hard to see
I left the city, given up on the dream I
Said “any port in the storm”, Oh what the hell does that mean?
And you were just so friendly to me
So why don't you stay for another
I used to think I would but I could never find another love
Oh Sylvia
Nothing to offer, just a cold heart of steel I
Didn't know what it is, I didn't know how it feels
To think about someone but me
And I tell you Sylvia, I've had enough
Of this romantic procedure, these maneuvers of love
And pretty little words that don't mean nothing to me
So why don't you stay for another
I used to think I would but I could never find another love
Oh Sylvia
I called her like 100 times but I get no reply
I cannot stand to think she does it just to make me suffer
I used to think I would but I could never be enough for her
So just take a chance on me lover
I used to think I would but I could never find another love
Oh Sylvia
I'm just dying without your love
Please, curtains in.
Start us off, you swing first.
Sorry.
I don't know what I said,
but you're crying now again,
and that only makes it worse.
Let me do my job.
Let me do my job.
Sylvia, get your head out of the oven.
Go back to screaming and cursing,
remind me again how everyone betrayed you.
Sylvia, get your head out of the covers.
Let me take your temperature,
you can throw the thermometer back at me,
if that's what you want to do, okay?
Please, please calm down.
Steady out, I'm terrified.
Sorry.
I want us to ally,
but you swing on little knives.
They're only sharp on one side.
Let me do my job.
Let me do my job.
Sylvia, get your head out of the oven.
Go back to screaming and cursing,
remind me again how everyone betrayed you.
Sylvia, get your head out of the covers.
Let me take your temperature,
you can throw the thermometer back at me,
if that's what you want to do, okay?
Sylvia, can't you see what you are doing?
Can't you see I'm scared to speak,
and i hate my voice 'cause it only makes you angry
Sylvia, i only talk when you are sleeping
That's when i tell you everything
sylvia what will we do here we are were waiting for you who will light the way from where where we stand the darkness plays a golden hand you fed us all with rotten pears but i dont care sylvia youre such a gas your time has come and now must pass who will light the way from where we stand the darkness plays a golden hand you fed us all with rotten pears but i dont care sylvia what will you do
You feel like it's real this new love you found
Does she have eyes like mine?
This new chance at a romance got you upside down
Does she have eyes like mine?
Just remember it was up to you
Who decided you could live without my baby blues
It'd be a long, long time
Till you see eyes like mine
Well, I waited up and I've taken up for you one last time
Does she have eyes like mine?
If you can't see that you need me then you must be blind
Does she have eyes like mine?
No, it's not misguided to blame yourself
So don't try and lay the blame on someone else
It'd be a long, long time
Till you see eyes like mine
Eyes like mine, eyes like mine
You'll be a long, long time
Till you see eyes like mine
Eyes like mine, eyes like mine
Eyes like mine, eyes like mine
Just remember it was up to you
Who decided you could live without my baby blues
It'd be a long, long time
Till you see eyes like mine
Eyes like mine, eyes like mine
You'll be a long, long time
Till you see eyes like mine
Eyes like mine, eyes like mine
You'll be a long, long time
Till you see eyes like mine
Drifter, since you left me
I've been cryin' every day
You knew that I loved you
But you drifted anyway
Drifter, I thought my kiss
Stopped all your restlessness
But you proved again
No one rooks the wind
Drifter, please remember
No one loves you like I do
Drifter, I thought my kiss
Stopped all your restlessness
But you proved again
No one rooks the wind
Drifter, I'll be waitin'
Should you ever drift back in
Cry, baby, no, I don't mind
You can be a baby, that's alright
Go on and cry, baby, cry
We both know how love could be
Anything but easy
There?s bound to be some tears
Through all those ups and downs
Falling in love and out
Baby, if you are hurting now, I'm here
And you can cry, baby
Go on and cry
You can use my shoulder anytime
You wanna cry, baby, cry
Cry, baby, no, I don't mind
You can be a baby, that's alright
Go on and cry, baby, cry
We all get down and sometimes we feel alone
Needing someone to hold
And it's more than we can take it
If that's how you feel now
It's alright to let it out
'Cause I'm right here to wipe your tears away
So go on and cry, baby
Go on and cry
You can use my shoulder anytime
You wanna cry, baby, cry
Cry, baby, no, I don't mind
You can be a baby, that's alright
Go on and cry, baby, cry
Cry, baby, go on cry
You can use my shoulder anytime
I found a cigarette, circled with lipstick
And the lingering of perfume in the room
The look on his face was priceless
I don't think he expected me so soon
I'm sure he's got an innocent excuse
Except for the snapshot, he doesn't know I've got
(I've got, uh, huh)
He almost pulled off the perfect lover's crime
Except for the snapshot that puts me on top
(On top, uh, huh)
He think he's got one on me but he hasn't seen the snapshot
He says he bought the new car strictly for business
And the new clothes match the new smile on his face
The extra key on his chain must be to the office
Poor baby, leaving early, staying late
He's got an alibi for every move he makes
Except for the snapshot, he doesn't know I've got
(I've got, uh, huh)
He almost pulled off the perfect lover's crime
Except for the snapshot that puts me on top
(On top, uh, huh)
He think he's got one on me but he hasn't seen the snapshot
When he comes home tonight, it'll be his surprise
I had it blown up, life size
(Life size)
I'm not quite as foolish as you thought I'd be
I took everything
Including the snapshot, he don't know I've got
(I've got, uh, huh)
He almost pulled off the perfect lover's crime
Except for the snapshot that puts me on top
(On top, uh, huh)
He thinks he's got one on me but he hasn't seen the snapshot
Except for the snapshot, he don't know I've got
(I've got, uh, huh)
He almost pulled off the perfect lover's crime
Except for the snapshot that puts me on top
(I've got, uh, huh)
What good is a deck of cards
Without the king of hearts?
What good is an Oreo
Without the middle part?
They're made for each other
Just like you and me
Ooh, you make my life so complete
What good is The Late Show
Without Bogie and Bacall?
What good is the radio
Without a Flaming Morgan song
They just go together
Baby, like you and me
Ooh, you make my life so complete
So complete, life is so sweet
You were the missing piece
Now my life is so complete
What good is the first star at
If you ain't got a wish?
What good is a good night
Without a goodnight kiss?
You know what I'm saying
You know what I mean
Ooh, you make my life so complete
So complete, life is so sweet
You were the missing piece
Tumbleweed, you're living a cowboy's dream
Tumbleweed, freedom is the air you breathe
But if you don't stop long enough
To let yourself fall in love
Tumbleweed, you're gonna end up lonely
You've been riding the range all alone for so long
No one can hold you, the wind is too strong
I'd tell you I love you and ask you to stay
But you're already drifting away
Tumbleweed, you're living a cowboy's dream
Tumbleweed, freedom is the air you breathe
But if you don't stop long enough
To let yourself fall in love
Tumbleweed, you're gonna end up lonely
You won't be broken, you won't be tied down
You drift with the wind barely touching the ground
But late at night out there under the stars
There's an empty place in your arms
Tumbleweed, you're living a cowboy's dream
Tumbleweed, freedom is the air you breathe
But if you don't stop long enough
To let yourself fall in love
Tumbleweed, you're gonna end up lonely
Tumbleweed you're gonna end up lonely
Sittin' in a restaraunt
and she walked by
I seem to recall that
certain look in your eye
I said "who's that?"
You said with a smile
"oh its nobody, aww nobody"
Maybe that explains
the last two weeks
You call me up
dead on your feet
Working late again
I ask "who with?"
You said "nobody, aww nobody"
(chorus)
Well your nobody called today
She hung up when I ask her name
Well I wonder does
she think shes being clever? (clever)
You say nobody's after you
the fact is what you say is true
But I can love you like nobody can
even better
Late last night we
went for a drive
You were miles away
I ask "whose on your mind?"
You said "nobody, why do you ask?"
Oh, her again
I could've told you that
We came back home
got ready for bed
I said to myself
I've got one shot left
Your still mine and I won't
stand in line behind
nobody, aww nobody
You feel so close, how could you be gone?
My dream is right, reality is wrong
'Cause I'm still with you where my heart's concerned
From where we were there is no return
'Cause I never quite got back from loving you
I'm still out there in that world you took me to
I just got lost when you found someone new
And I never quite got back from loving you
A year of nights hasn't changed that much
The love we had, time can never touch
When I close my eyes you're never out of sight
I'm in this house but I'm not home tonight
'Cause I never quite got back from loving you
I'm still out there in that world you took me to
I just got lost when you found someone new
And I never quite got back from loving you
No, I never quite got back from loving you
I'm still out there in that world you took me to
I just got lost when you found someone new
And I never quite got back
We went through the house today
Divided up our stuff
I got some old records of his
He got all my love
The facts are facin' me tonight
And they look like bad news
Tonight I'm getting friendly with the blues
The blues have kept good track of me
But he kept them outside
They could tell the minute he left
There's no place to hide
But I'll admit the company
Is something I could use
Tonight I'm getting friendly with the blues
He used to say I was too jealous
Of all his old girlfriends
I competed with their memories
And now I'm one of them
If you can't beat 'em join 'em
Be gracious when you lose
Tonight I'm getting friendly with the blues
Everytime you have to whisper good-bye
Well
I cry just a little bit
Cry just a little bit.
I know it's crazy and I don't know why
But I die just a little bit
Die just a little bit.
I need to be the one that's by your side
You are the beat in my heart.
My love for you is something I can't hide
And I cry just a little bit
Cry just a little bit
Cry just a little bit
Cry just a little bit.
Every night before I'm fallin' asleep
Well
I pray just a little bit
Pray just a little bit.
I pray nobody wants your loving to keep
And you stray just a little bit
Stray just a little bit.
Don't let temptation fill your heart with dreams
Don't let your mind run away.
Forbidden love is never what it seems
And you cry just a little bit
Cry just a little bit
Cry just a little bit.
You're the light that brightens all of my days
The sun shines above you and I would die
If someone took you away
'Cause I love you
Love you.
Cry just a little bit
Cry just a little bit.
I want forever to be you and I
That's's the way it should be.
I live for you and
Baby
That is why I cry just a little bit
Cry just a little bit
Cry just a little bit.
Every night we have to whisper good-bye
I cry just a little bit
Cry just a little bit.
I know it's crazy and I don't know why
But I die just a little bit
Die just a little bit.
Cry Cry Cry
Cry just a little bit
Cry just a little bit
Cry Cry Cry
Cry just a little bit
Fire burns in the street below
Such is the fate of Atlanta
In my diary I write these words
Though I can't believe what's happened
The Union troops go marching through,
Like an endless blue river
It's been weeks without any news
Am I the only one who remembers
Bobby, Bobby's in Vicksburg
Ooo oooo
Bobby, hey, will you ever come home?
Ooo oooo
Bobby, Bobby's in Vicksburg
As the cannons 'round me thunder
The South is going under
And Bobby's in Vicksburg
I searched the names of casualties
For one Bobby P. Parker
It isn't there to my relief
But every list goes longer
Today I gave my wedding ring
To raise money for the fighting
Can help my Bobby more this way
I just pray he knows I'm trying
Bobby, hey, Bobby's in Vicksburg
Ooo oooo
Bobby, oh, will you ever come home?
Ooo oooo
Bobby, hey, Bobby's in Vicksburg
As the cannons 'round me thunder
The South is going under
And Bobby's in Vicksburg
If I could I would get on a horse
And ride, ride, ride
But I'd look at Union troops
On every side
General Grant and general Lee
Why can't you see
What you're doing to me
I can't go to him
He can't get to me
Bobby
Bobby, Bobby
Bobby, hey, Bobby's in Vicksburg
As the cannons 'round me thunder
The South is going under
And Bobby's in
Bobby, Bobby, Bobby's in Vicksburg
Ooo oooo
Bobby, Bobby, will you ever come home?
Ooo oooo
Bobby, Bobby, Bobby's in Vicksburg
Ooo oooo
Reach the city steps tonight Following the power lines
Met a man barside With eclipses for eyes And you tell yourself you wont let them touch Did I say too much did I say enough I don't know Sylvia I don't know Sylvia
Circle round the room still Breaking my will
Know I can't have you here Someone else on your skin
And it's all my fault for not getting off And you made it start, can you make it stop? You don't know Sylvia You don't know Sylvia
Daamn Daamn
Reach the city steps tonight Following the power lines
I am your automatic lover
Automatic lover
I am your automatic lover
Automatic lover
I am your automatic lover
Automatic lover
I am your automatic lover
Love in space of time
There's no more feeling
Automated love holdin'
Appealing
I'm longing to be touched
Longing for a kiss
Whisper words of love
Tell me that you missed you
See me, feel me, hear me, love me, touch me
See me, feel me, hear me, love me, I can see you
See me, feel me, hear me, love me, touch me, I can feel you
See me, feel me, hear me, love me, I can see you
See me, feel me, hear me, touch me, I can hold you
See me, feel me, hear me, love me, I...
Nothing to caress
Not a hand to hold
I don't need his touch
'Cause his body's cold
He's programmed to receive
Automatic satisfaction
Auto love is dead
Was his true reaction
See me, feel me, hear me, love me, touch me
See me, feel me, hear me, love me, I can hold you
See me, feel me, hear me, love me, touch me, I can feel you
See me, feel me, hear me, love me, I wanna love you
See me, feel me, hear me, love me, touch me, I...
See me, feel me, hear me, love me, how I need you
See me, feel me, hear me, love me, touch me, I can see you
See me, feel me, hear me, love me, how I need you
See me, feel me, hear me, love me, touch me, I...
I am your automatic lover
Automatic lover
I am your automatic lover
Automatic lover
I am your automatic lover
Automatic lover
I am your automatic lover
Automatic lover
I am your automatic lover
Automatic lover
I am your automatic lover
Automatic lover
I am your automatic lover
I, I, I, I, I
Hey, baby, let me stay
I don't care what your friends are 'bout to say, ah-ah
What you friends all say is fine
But it can't compete with this pillow talk of mine
You can't find love on a one way street
It takes two to tangle, takes two to even compete, oh, yeah
So boy, just put that stop sign down
And let's get together before the day runs us down
I'm pleading to you now
Hey, baby, let me try
To be the one's who's gonna light your fire, ha-ha
What you friends all say is fine
But it can't compete with this pillow talk of mine
Ooh, I don't wanna see you be no fool
What I'm teachin' you tonight, boy, you'll never learn it in school, oh, no
So friends who tell me wrong from right
I'll ask to borrow their pants some cold and lonely night
Ooh, hey, baby, let me be
The one who turns you on from A to Z, ha-ha
What you friends all say is fine
But it can't compete with this pillow talk of mine
Ooh...baby
Ooh, baby, la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Ah...would you, baby
Would you, baby, la-la-la-la-la-la-la
I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I
Uno momento por quito
Uno momento por quito
I, I, I, I
Nice daddy, nice daddy, nice daddy
I, I, I, I
Oh, my God
Tumbleweed, you're living a cowboy's dream
Tumbleweed, freedom is the air you breathe
But if you don't stop long enough
To let yourself fall in love
Tumbleweed, you're gonna end up lonely
You've been riding the range all alone for so long
No one can hold you, the wind is too strong
I'd tell you I love you and ask you to stay
But you're already drifting away
Tumbleweed, you're living a cowboy's dream
Tumbleweed, freedom is the air you breathe
But if you don't stop long enough
To let yourself fall in love
Tumbleweed, you're gonna end up lonely
You won't be broken, you won't be tied down
You drift with the wind barely touching the ground
But late at night out there under the stars
There's an empty place in your arms
Tumbleweed, you're living a cowboy's dream
Tumbleweed, freedom is the air you breathe
But if you don't stop long enough
To let yourself fall in love
Tumbleweed, you're gonna end up lonely
Tumbleweed you're gonna end up lonely
They say behind those eyes,
Beats a heart as cold as ice
If I was smart,
I'd take my heart and ru-un...
He promises the moon,
His talk is fast and smooth,
He's only looking out
For number one!
(Chorus)
They say,
The boy (the boy), the boy gets arou-ound
He's been (he's been) with every girl in to-own.
But I don't care what they say,
You know I'm gonna love him anyway!
They'll see, when he gets around to me--
He'll settle down, down, down!
The boy gets around, round round
The boy gets around...
They tell me, I'll get hurt
You play with fire, you'll get burned!
But maybe that's a chance
I'll have to ta-ake!
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
I'll prove he can be tamed!
When I get through,
They won't believe the cha-ange...
The boy (the boy), the boy gets arou-ound
He's been (he's been) with every girl in to-own.
But I don't care what they say,
You know I'm gonna love him anyway!
They'll see, when he gets around to me--
He'll settle down, down, down!
The boy gets around, round round
The boy gets around...
I tell you, he's misunderstood...
Don't they know even bad boys can be goo-oo-ood?
Yes!
But I don't care what they say,
You know I'm gonna love him anyway!
They'll see, when he gets around to me--
He'll settle down, down, down!
The boy gets around, round round!
The boy (the boy), the boy gets arou-ound
He's been (he's been) with every girl in to-own
The boy (the boy), the boy gets arou-ound
They'll see, with me, he'll settle dow-own!
The boy (the boy), the boy gets arou-ound...
That day he approached me magnificently,
I knew it at once, he was my love.
The only one…the only one…
Oh, Sylvia, my soul,
Sylvia, my destiny,
You embraced my mysteriously, Sylvia.
Now I’ll linger forever,
No matter how hard the wind blows,
I’ll be with you.
A beautiful song flows,
And my love becomes a flower atop it.
Oh, Sylvia, my paradise,
Sylvia, my destiny,
Like a whisper, you embraced me, Sylvia.
Now I’ll linger forever,
Let the winds blow as fierce as they wish,
I’ll keep our light hidden…always…
Oh, Sylvia, my sunshine,
Sylvia, my sea,
Like a miracle you embraced me, Sylvia.
Now I’ll linger forever,
No matter how hard the wind blows,
OH SYLVIA
DARLIN' YOU GOTTA PLEASE WAKE UP
WE'RE TAKING WATER ON THE BOAT
AND ALL THE SHIPS AT SEA
GOT THEIR GUNS LINED UP ON YOU AND ME
SHE SAID OH YOU BETTER ROW
ROLL DOWN THE RIVER OUT TO THE SEA
DON'T GO WITHOUT ME
TAKING CARE OF YOU AND ME
OH SYLVIA
FIRE ON THE STOVE AND WATER IN THE CUP
SOME TIMES IT FEELS LIKE DYING STANDING UP
FOR ALL THE TIME WITH ME
DARLIN' YOU GOT MY SYMPATHY
DON'T EVER GO
ROLL DOWN THE RIVER OUT TO THE SEA
DON'T GO WITHOUT ME
TAKING CARE OF YOU AND ME
ROLL DOWN THE RIVER OUT TO THE SEA
NO BETTER PLACE FOR YOU AND ME
TAKING CARE OF YOU AND ME
ROLL DOWN THE RIVER OUT TO THE SEA
DON'T GO WITHOUT ME
Sylvia, Sylvia,
Ne me regarde pas.
Sylvia, il y a
Un truc qui va pas.
Attends encore un peu c'est mieux
Que je réessaye un coup,
Et quand tu ouvriras les yeux,
Hip hip hip houra!
Bientôt, bientôt,
Je sors du chapeau.
Bientot, rideau,
Et tout bien comme il faut.
Attends encore un peu veux-tu,
Et tu applaudiras.
Non tu ne seras pas décue.
Abracadabra!
Bravo, bravo,
Un jour je serai beau.
Je serai beau, je serai beau.
Oui bravo, bravo,
Un jour il sera beau
Ton crapaud, ton crapaud.
Lumière, plein feux,
Attention nous voila.
Du vert, du bleu,
Tout comme tu voudras.
Attends encore un peu, recule,
Et bientot tu pourras,
Quand j'aurai trouvé la formule.
Abracadra!
Bravo, bravo,
Un jour, je serai beau
Je serai beau, je serai beau.
Oui bravo, bravo,
Un jour il sera beau
Ton crapaud, ton crapaud.
Attends encore un peu c'est vrai,
Bientot c'est le clou
Et tu vas voir comme je te plais.
Hip hip hip hourra!
Ou pas, ou pas
Ou peut-être pas du tout.
Sylvia, Sylvia,
Reste jusqu'au bout.
Attends un dernier tour et puis
Peut-être tu m'aimeras.
C'est mon dernier tour de magie.
Sylvia is missing -
Dark stars tattooed
Across her face...
Tiny bruises
Black & blue
The dedication on her arm
Reads "LOVE & HATE"
Yea yea
Passing through the underground
Sylvia is coming down
The queen has lost her crown
Today...
She wants to fall
Into a deep deep sleep
So she can forget herself
Run away to London
Lipstick tainted
Powder painted
Perfume in her hair
Run away to London
A thousand cold caresses
Couldn't keep her there
Yea yea
She wants to fall
Into a deep deep sleep
So she can forget herself
The finger prints
Of strangers
On the ugly bedroom floor
Reveal the only traces
I was walking down the main road,
I was walking down the high street,
I was walking down the main road,
Baby yeah.
Sylvia
She was standing outside Tescos,
She started smoking on the corner,
Oh shit, my heart flipped,
Baby yeah.
I was walking down the Main Road
I was walking down the High Street
I was walking down the Main Road
Baby yeah...
Sylvia...
Sylvia...
I was walking down the Main Road
I was walking down the High Street
I was walking down the Main Road
Baby yeah...
Sylvia...
Sylvia...
(Watch that girl, watch that girl)
She was stood outside Safeways
Then she started smoking on the corner
Oh shit, my heart flipped
Baby yeah...
Sylvia...
