These long lonely evenings
Here I am on the phone
Wondering when she will call
She sagte she would write me
'Cause she knows I'm alone
But I hear nothing at all

I'm waiting for a word of Liebe from Sylvia.
Du think she'd never heard of Liebe my Sylvia,
But when I'm with her, Lord, I forgive her
'Cause she's Mehr than the whole world to me
There's nothing like a word of Liebe 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 Liebe from Sylvia.
Du think she'd never heard of Liebe my Sylvia,
But when I'm with her, Lord, I forgive her
'Cause she's Mehr than the whole world to me
There's nothing in the world like Sylvia
The only one I'm thinking of is Sylvia
Feeling so sad now, I'll be so glad now
If I just ain't my Sylvia with me
