Suddenly, Seymour - 1982 Original Cast

Lift up your head, wash out your mascera
 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 ok
 Suddenly Seymour 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
 Nobody ever treat me so kindly
 Daddy left early, Mama was poor
 I'd meet a man and I'd follow him blindly
 He snaps his fingers, me, I'd say sure
 Suddenly Seymour, standing beside me
 He don't give me orders, he don't condescent
 Suddenly Seymour, is here to provide me
 Sweet understanding, Seymour's my friend
 Tell me this feeling, last till forever
 Tell me the bad times, are clean washed away
 Please understand that's still strange and frightening
 For losers like I've been, it's so hard to say
 Suddenly Seymour. (Suddenly Seymour)
 He purifies me. (He purifies you)
 Suddenly Seymour. (Suddenly Seymour)
 Shows 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 my (your) man
