Sylvia
Oh Sylvia, won't you stay?
Your mind is golden
And your eyes are jade
Your smile is a diamond
And your tears are the rain
Your eyes hold the sunrise
And your heart holds the day
Your mind's full of moonlight
But you're fading away
Oh Sylvia, won't you stay?
We met in the summer
And my world was grey
I couldn't see colour
I was scared of the day
As you spoke the clouds lifted
And I felt myself breathe
My vision was misted
I could finally see
Oh Sylvia, won't you stay?
Under the alder
You caught my gaze
Your hands were the ocean
The sea in your veins
We walked to the altar
And we made our escape
We ran to the alder
And left the same day
Oh Sylvia, won't you stay?
In the days that I loved you
In the days that came
I lost it all for you
We gave it away
I gave you everything you wished for
Still I remain
Under the alder
Surrounded by grey
Under the alder
Stagnant, insane
Encased in grey
Sylvia, why won't you stay?
Your mind is golden
And your eyes are jade
Your smile is a diamond
And your tears are the rain
Your eyes hold the sunrise
And your heart holds the day
Your mind's full of moonlight
But you're fading away
Oh Sylvia, won't you stay?
We met in the summer
And my world was grey
I couldn't see colour
I was scared of the day
As you spoke the clouds lifted
And I felt myself breathe
My vision was misted
I could finally see
Oh Sylvia, won't you stay?
Under the alder
You caught my gaze
Your hands were the ocean
The sea in your veins
We walked to the altar
And we made our escape
We ran to the alder
And left the same day
Oh Sylvia, won't you stay?
In the days that I loved you
In the days that came
I lost it all for you
We gave it away
I gave you everything you wished for
Still I remain
Under the alder
Surrounded by grey
Under the alder
Stagnant, insane
Encased in grey
Sylvia, why won't you stay?
