Sylvia, does it help if I say I feel for you?

And I think it was the one about the tulips

That did it - that did it.

Oh and isn't it a shame

You had to go through so much pain

To help someone that you never knew.

Sylvia, it doesn't help if I say I've been down too

But there's always been someone I could turn to

Why not you - why not you?

And though seldom they could share

It was knowing they were there that pulled me through.

It seems there are a few

Who can say it for the many

And maybe one or two

Who can say it for the few

And one of them was you.

Sylvia, don't get me wrong if I say I see through you

And before my colours turn darker than blue

Oh what can I do- what can I do?

Oh it just seems so unfair that through sadness and despair

You help someone that you never knew.

It seems there's one or two

Who can say it for the few

And maybe just a few

Who can say it for the many

But that can't help you any.

Sylvia, it doesn't help if I say I've been down too

But before my colours turn darker than blue.

Oh what can I do- what can I do?

Oh and isn't it a crime that you lose out every time

And help someone that you never knew.
