Sylvia |
| If you’re all that you’re cracked up to be |
| Sylvia, come and sit with me |
| And hold my hand, for comfort’s sake |
| If who you are eventually |
| Is all that forms your destiny |
| If character equates to fate |
| Then I’m not great |
| But it’s not in me to complain |
| Oh, girl in white, come close to me |
| Hold my hand, pass notes to me |
| Unquestioning in dormitories |
| We string our beads and fill our plates |
| The days repeat and play again |
| And times goes by so idly |
| Writing in your diary |
| And every line the same: |
| That if this is life |
| Then why does it feel like I’m dreaming? |
| Oh, if this is life |
| Then why does it feel like I’m far away? |
| And |
| And if this is life |
| Then why does it feel like I’m dreaming? |
| Oh, if this is life |
| Then why does it feel like I’m far away? |
| And if this is life |
| Then, Sylvia — |
| Arriving at the window like the milk |
| All dressed in white |
| Tell me what you are |
| And tell me, if my character is fate |
| Do I confine myself |
| 'Til I find a way to dream us all awake? |
| It’s weird |
| Sometimes, well, I swear I don’t remember how you came |
| Oh, and, girl in white |
| Just tell me if you think I’m dreaming |
| Oh, if this is life |
| Then why does it feel like I’m far away? |
| Oh, and this is life |
| But still it does feel like I’m dreaming |
| And if this is life |
| Then, Sylvia — |
