(Words & music by G. Stephens - L. Reed)
These long lonely evenings
Here I am on the phone
Wondering when she will call
She said she would write me

´Cause she knows I?m alone
But I hear nothing at all

I´m waiting for a word of love from Sylvia.
You think she´d never heard of love my Sylvia,
But when I?m with her Lord, I forgive her
´Cause she´s more than the whole world to me
There´s nothing like a word of love from Sylvia
The only one I?m thinking of is Sylvia
Feeling so sad now, I´ll be so glad now
If I just had my Sylvia with me

That old weepin´ willow
Seems to whisper her name
Why did she go away
The tears on my pillow
They´re not hard to explain
There´s nothing else I can say

I´m waiting for a word of love from Sylvia.
You think she´d never heard of love my Sylvia,
But when I?m with her Lord, I forgive her
´Cause she´s more than the whole world to me
There´s nothing in the world like my Sylvia
The only one I?m thinking of is Sylvia
Feeling so sad now, I´ll be so glad now
If I just had my Sylvia with me
