Rebecca Lyrics
Stood by my Missus in the lobby
Asked to carry bags of Madame
Elevators rush to the sea
Rummaged through my coat for the keyAfter tea, lounged on the sofa
My lady spoke of everyone she knew there
She paused, grabbed my wrist, said, "Now, darling there he is"
I looked up, my surroundings stirred and smearedHis eyes calm and distant
His mouth so severe
Though half his age I was
I've never been in love before thenMax, you're so distraught
Perhaps, I'll help you out
Your wife was so much more than me
But I can be her now, I can be her nowRush down the stairs to that man
Mr. Summer, he nodded his head
With laughter in his eyes, a smirk followed close behind
"We're strangers but I'm sure we should be married"I spoke to my master, she nodded her head
Though I was young and scared
With Max standing there
We took our first stepMax, you're so distraught
Perhaps, I'll help you out
Your wife was so much more than me
But I can be her now, I can be her now
I can be her now
