Suddenly Seymour Lyrics

Lift up your head
Wash off your mascara
Here, take my kleenex
Wipe that lipstick away
Show me your face
Clean as the morning
I know things were bad
But now they're okay

[Refrain]
Suddenly, Seymour is standing beside you
You don't need no makeup
Don't have to pretend
Suddenly, Seymour is there to provide you
Sweet understanding
Seymour's your friend

Nobody ever treated me kindly
Daddy left early and Mama was poor
I'd meet a man and I'd follow him blindly
He'd snap his fingers, and me, I'd say "sure"

[Refrain]
Suddenly, Seymour is standing 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 will last till forever
And tell me the bad times are clean washed away
Please understand that it's still strange and frightening
For losers like I've been it's so hard to say

[Refrain]
Suddenly, Seymour, he purified me
Yes, 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
Seymour's your man
