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 And do what you do I can't help you but I know things are gonna get better And please stop asking what it's got to do with you Oh, keep believing 'cause 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 Oh, I just didn't know it then

I never understood you really And I know it's too late now You didn't ask to be that way Oh, I'm sorry, Sylvia

So keep believing And do what you do I can't help you but I know things are gonna get better And please stop asking what it's got to do with you Oh, keep believing 'cause you know that you deserve better Oh, it's true, yeah

So please stop asking what it's got to do with you Oh, keep believing 'cause you know that you deserve better Oh, yeah, you know that you deserve better Oh, yeah, you know that you deserve better Oh, Sylvia
