Rebecca Lyrics - Hazel O'connor

A top flat in bays water 

Rebecca would be doing my hair 

We had so much fun 

She sang all of the words to my song 

As it played on the player 

She'd give me her bed for the night 

She would feed me and clothe me and such 

I'd laugh and say, when the light hits that way 

You remind me of Shirley Maclaine 

When will I see you again? 

When will we sing silly harmonies into the night? 

I try and I try but I can't help missing you 

I wonder where you are now 

We had us a dream back then 

When we got back the things that were stole 

We'd have an old fashioned party 

An orchestra, long gowns 

We'd be the belles of the ball 

And we'd dance to the emperor's waltz 

Because that was her favorite song 

I'd laugh and say, when the light hits that way 

You remind me of Shirley Maclaine 

When will I see you again? 

When will we sing silly harmonies into the night? 

I try and I try but I can't help missing you 

I wonder where you are now 

Are you an angel, have you been reborn? 

Did you find your Buddha, was it worth all the toil? 

I write 'cause I miss you 

And there's nothing more I can do 

When will I see you again? 

When will we sing silly harmonies into the night? 

I try and I try but I can't help missing you 

I wonder where you are now 

Now the top flat is empty 

But our rare old times call from the walls 

And I hope that wherever you are you're alright 

And I'll still have our ball 

And we'll dance to the emperor's waltz 

Because that was your favorite tune 

I'd laugh and say, when the light hits that way 

You remind me of Shirley Maclaine 

When will I see you again? 

When will we sing silly harmonies into the night? 

I try and I try but I can't help missing you 

I wonder 

When will I see you again? 

When will we sing silly harmonies into the night? 

I try and I try but I can't help missing you 

I wonder where you are now
