Video Rebecca de Mackenzie Phillips 2024 Lyrics Lyrics

Mackenzie Phillips - Rebecca Lyrics

Rebecca moves accross the world
She's a scirocco on the sand
She is the Nile that flows forever
Cutting a wound across the land

She'll be your friend before you know her
She'll have your trust before it's earned
But like any nomad she will wander
Breaking the hearts of all concerned

History clouds what we remember
The woman you wanted her to be
Mystery shrouds her like an island
It is an island in a lonely sea
Oh, Rebecca
Tiditititow
Oh, Rebecca

I was thirteen goin' on forty
Wasting my summer on the beach
Burned on the outside and raw in the middle
That Molly's just too hard to reach
Rebecca moved in yeah she moved me
She was the best friend I've ever had
But then one day she went away
Didn't think I'd ever feel that bad

Where did you go?
Why did you lie?
Why did you leave without saying goodbye?
How 'bout the promise that you made me
Was it really so easy to trade me
For another town, another friend
Another beginning without any end

So many times I would've called you
If I had your number in my hand
You were the one I would have turned to
When things didn't go the way I'd planned
I never got a chance to tell you
Things didn't go the way I planned

History clouds what I remember
The woman I wanted her to be
Mystery shrouds her like an island
does she still remember me?

All my life is like a turnstile
So many strangers passing through
There've been more than I can number
But I still remember you

Ohhhhhh
Rebecca
Ohhhhhh Rebecca
