Intro :
These l ong lonely ev enings here
I am on the p hone wo ndering when she will
c all she said she would w rite me
'cause she kn ows I'm alo ne
b ut I hear no thing at a ll
I'm w aiting for a word of love from sylvia
You'd t hink she never h eard of love my sy lvia
but when I'm with her lor d
I fo rgive her 'cause she's m ore than the whole world to me
there's noth ing like a word of love from sy lvia
The on ly one I'm thi nking of is syl via feelin g so sad
now I 'll be s o glad now If I just had my sylvia w ith me
That old weeping wi llow seems to whis per her na me
why did she go awa y the tears on my pi llow
they're not hard to exp lain there's noth ing else I can
s ay I'm waiting for a word of love from sylvia
you'd th ink she never h eard of love my sylv ia
b ut when I'm with her Lord
I forg ive her 'cause she's m ore than the whole world to me .
There's no thing like a word like my syl via
the only one I'm th inking of is sylvi a
f eeling so sad now I'd be so gla d now
I f I just had my syl via with me
