SEYMOUR:
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 theyâ??re OK

Suddenly Seymour
Is standing beside you
You donâ??t need no make-up
Donâ??t have to pretend

Suddenly Seymour
Is here to provide you
Sweet understanding
Seymourâ??s your friend

AUDREY:
Nobody ever
Treated me kindly
Daddy left early
Momma was poor
Iâ??d meet a man
And follow him blindly
Heâ??d snap his fingers
Me, Iâ??d say sure

Suddenly Seymour
Is standing beside me
He donâ??t give me orders
He donâ??t condescend

Suddenly Seymour
Is here to provide me
Sweet understanding
Seymourâ??s my friend

SEYMOUR:
Tell me these feelings
Will last â??til forever
Show me the bad times
Are clean washed away

AUDREY:
Please understand that
Itâ??s still strange and frightening
For losers like Iâ??ve been
Itâ??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 thatâ??s inside me/you

With sweet understanding
With sweet understandinâ??
With sweet understanding
With sweet understandinâ??

With sweet understanding
Seymourâ??s my/your man
