Rebecca Lyrics

I'm walking slowly about the sea
Lover by lover I pass them on the beach
The sun is shining so bright today
Your voice is singing to me across the waves
Ahh... ah.... ah....

And there's a young boy, makes eyes at me
Does he mouth my name or is this just a dream
I know inside that I can really love
The waves are glistening like heaven from above
And here we'll stay and sing forever of peace

I know we've found love here by the sea

Could this be heaven could this be peace
No more than sunshine and sand and water's deep
I'd always dreamed that life could be like this
Forever high and sigh from kiss to kiss

I know we've found love here by the sea

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
