Sylvia by Emily Afton Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You know your heart it never leaves
Once you’re gone
Once you’re gone
And your part wasn’t the lead
In the movie, Sylvia
In the movie, Sylvia

[Pre-Chorus]
You say you’re crazy 'cause the world, it made you so
And I can’t take it now, I wish I could know
A world where..

[Chorus]
Where you can have whatever you want
Go baby go (go baby go, go baby go, go baby go)
Where you can have the moon and the sun
Go baby go (go baby go, go baby go, go baby go)
Oh keep your tenderness, it is your strength
Don’t let them tell you that it makes you weak
[Verse 2]
Sylvia
I wanna give you back what they took
I wanna write your name in the books
And make sure that everybody reads you (everybody reads you)
Sylvia
Your heart beats in the Stonewall
The rainbow kids we owe all
Our freedoms to you and Marsha P

[Pre-Chorus]
You say you’re crazy 'cause the world, it made you so
And I can’t take it now, I wish I could know
A world where..

[Chorus/Outro]
Where you can have whatever you want
Go baby go (go baby go, go baby go, go baby go)
Where you can have the moon and the sun
Go baby go (go baby go, go baby go, go baby go)
Oh keep your tenderness, it is your strength
Don’t let them tell you that it makes you weak
You fought with elegance and gave your soul
And every time we win, it’s you we owe (it’s you we owe)
