Sylvie Songtext
von Julie Murphy

It was one of those mornings
It was one of those days
She dressed herself in a man′s way
Put a gun in her pocket
And her keys in her hand
She drove away slowly to find her man

He was standing on the corner
He was thinking of her
She was all the world to him
And no one could compare
He loved her so hard it made his head swim
But the harder he loved her
The more she doubted him

She drove alongside him
Her lover, her man
All he saw was a stranger
With a gun in their hand


Then out of the darkness
Came a voice soft and low
"Your watch and your money
The rest you know"
He handed them to her
She said one thing more
"A diamond ring, I thought I saw
A diamond ring I know you own
I'll have it, I′ll have it
Before you go home"

"That diamond ring was given to me
As a token of love urgent and deep
You can take all the money
I have in the world
But I'll keep the ring
And I'll keep my girl"

He closed his eyes
Waiting for the plane
But she drove away from him
The sunshine never came
He felt the world turning
And he wasn′t real
"My lover, my lover
How sleepy I do feel"

Ffarwel i chwi Lenny, ffarwel i chwi Oll
Cyn y delwydd ma nesa bydd miloedd ar goll
Bydd llawer merch ifanc yn isel a′i phen
Cyn y delwydd ma nesa i roi caniad a bren


"Sat down on a hearth
Hot coal frozen stone
Ten thousand stood 'round me
And yet I was alone
I took my hat in my hand
To keep my head warm
Ten thousand got drawn in
But never was born"

And when he woke up
His lover was dead

Lying beside him
A stork in his head
"Somebody rob me but I came to no harm"
Then he looked down to see
His watch in her arm
She smiled when she saw
His face was red
"Did you really think
I′d cut you to dead?
I only did this thing to know

If you were my man or no"
