emmy the great - sylvia lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1:]
if you’re all that you’re cracked up to be
sylvia, come and sit with me
and hold my hand, for comfort’s sake
if who you are eventually
is all that forms your destiny
if character equates to fate
then i’m not great
but it’s not in me to complain

[harmonizing]

[verse 2:]
oh, girl in white, come close to me
hold my hand, p-ss notes to me
unquestioning in dormitories
we string our beads and fill our plates
the days repeat and play again

[pre-chorus 1:]
and times goes by so idly
writing in your diary
and every line the same:

[chorus 1:]
that if this is life
then why does it feel like i’m dreaming?
oh, if this is life
then why does it feel like i’m far away?
and

[harmonizing]

[chorus 2:]
and if this is life
then why does it feel like i’m dreaming?
oh, if this is life
then why does it feel like i’m far away?
and if this is life
then, sylvia –

[bridge:]
arriving at the window like the milk
all dressed in white
tell me what you are
and tell me, if my character is fate
do i confine myself
’til i find a way to dream us all awake?
it’s weird
sometimes, well, i swear i don’t remember how you came

[pre-chorus:]
oh, and, girl in white
just tell me if you think i’m dreaming
oh, if this is life
then why does it feel like i’m far away?

[chorus 3:]
oh, and this is life
but still it does feel like i’m dreaming
and if this is life
then, sylvia –
