Suddenly, Seymour

Suddenly, Seymour - Lee Wilkof

Written by：Howard Ashman/Alan Menken

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 make up don't have to pretend

Suddenly Seymour is here to provide you

Sweet understandin' 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 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 last 'til forever

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

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

With sweet understanding

With sweet understanding

With sweet understanding

With sweet understanding

With sweet understanding

Seymour's your man
