Well, she came without a warning
To give my heart a shape
Who is she? Who is Sylvia?
You tell yourself that somewhere
Someone will forgive you
Who is she? Who is Sylvia?
She doesn’t have to listen
And she doesn’t have to care
She doesn’t even know I’m here
I am I, and I am why and why is there no reason
Why she doesn’t even know what I’m saying
No worries, nothings gonna get you now, Sylvia
When I first saw her face
Beautiful and sad
I started to live while she was learning to die
I don’t know why
Our doubts become traitors, treason of the will
Who is she? Who is Sylvia?
She doesn’t have to listen
And she doesn’t have to care
She doesn’t even know I’m here
I am I, and I am why and why is there no reason
Why she doesn’t even know what I’m saying
No worries, nothings gonna get you now, Sylvia
She doesn’t have to listen
And she doesn’t have to care
She doesn’t even know I’m here
I am I, and I am why and why is there no reason
Why she doesn’t even know what I’m saying
No worries, nothings gonna get you now, Sylvia
I’m going down to the water
I’m going down to the river
I going down, will you hold me?
I’m going down to the water
I’m going down, will you hold me?
I’m going down, I’m going down
