{{Template:Lyrics|In Sympathy|
They're almost falling over you
 
Why don't they call a truce
 
Whatever they are trying to do
 
It's of little use
 
 
They're drowning you in compliments
 
Trying to furnish proof
 
And though they speak with eloquence
 
There is little truth
 
 
You're bright, you're strong
 
You know your right from wrong
 
At least to some degree
 
You're wise, you're tough
 
You've heard their lies enough
 
You smile in sympathy
 
 
I'm watching your serenity
 
The way your soul transcends
 
Their tedious obscenities
 
Your patience never ends
 
 
And as the night begins to fade
 
You're heading for the door
 
Followed by a sad parade
 
You're on your own once more
 
 
You're bright, you're strong
 
You know your right from wrong
 
At least to some degree
 
You're wise, you're tough
 
You've heard their lies enough
 
You smile in sympathy

Lyrics


In Sympathy

They're almost falling over you

Why don't they call a truce

Whatever they are trying to do

It's of little use


They're drowning you in compliments

Trying to furnish proof

And though they speak with eloquence

There is little truth


You're bright, you're strong

You know your right from wrong

At least to some degree

You're wise, you're tough

You've heard their lies enough

You smile in sympathy


I'm watching your serenity

The way your soul transcends

Their tedious obscenities

Your patience never ends


And as the night begins to fade

You're heading for the door

Followed by a sad parade

You're on your own once more


You're bright, you're strong

You know your right from wrong

At least to some degree

You're wise, you're tough

You've heard their lies enough

You smile in sympathy
