Suddenly Seymour

[Seymour]
Lift up your head
Wash off that 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

Suddenly, Seymour
Is standing beside you
You don't need no make-up
Don't have to pretend

Suddenly, Seymour
Is here to provide you
Sweet understanding
Seymour's your friend

[Audrey]
Nobody ever
Treated me kindly
Daddy left early
Momma 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 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

[Seymour]
Tell me this feeling
Will last till forever
Tell me the bad times
Are clean washed away

[Audrey]
Please, understand that
It's still strange and frightening
For losers like I've been
It's hard to say

Suddenly, Seymour
(Suddenly, Seymour)
He purified me
(He purified you)
Suddenly, Seymour
(Suddenly, Seymour)
Showed me I can
(Yes, you can)

Learn how to be more
The girl that's inside me (you)

With sweet understanding
(With sweet understanding)
With sweet understanding
(With sweet understanding)

With sweet understanding
Seymour's your man
