Love Is A Bridge Lyrics

Lift up your head, wipe off that mascara
Here take my Kleenex, wipe your lipstick away
Show me your face as 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
Nobody ever treated me kindly
Daddy left early, momma was poor
I'd meet a man and 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 these feelings will last 'til forever
Show 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 hard to say
Suddenly Seymour, suddenly Seymour
He purified me
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 understandin'
With sweet understanding
With sweet understandin'
With sweet understanding
Seymour's [unverified] man
