A few months back we re-wrote the lyrics to 01CWe019ve Gone Crazy01D and sent you all the lyrics and asked the mailing list members to submit what you think should be the name. We got a ton of great ideas, but our friend Margie suggested 01CMy Rebecca01D as it was the anniversary of her sister019s passing when she saw the lyrics, and she said so many elements of the song totally reminded her of her sister. It looked like the song was about Rebecca, we just didn019t know it yet. This song is for you Rebecca, Margie and family.

Tomcat stares into the high grass
Song of leaves float on like a cool breeze
Soft magnolia nights

Porchswing groans and creaks the evening
Old quilt would hold their warming sweet souls
Loving afterglow

She would shine like the world now
Make the whole town
Smile and sigh lost in her eyes

And her laugh would warm your soul now
Sweet golden somehow
Neverending skies in her blue eyes

It scares him when those feelings well in
Sits and stares across the old dirt road
Rows of pecan grove

The moonlight glows on like a porchlight
Breaks apart that old pecan grove
How they stand alone

And she would light up a room now
He cant explain how
She was so fine life was so kind

It rushes in like she's there now
The smell of her hair now
Sitting on the swing crickets would sing

Every Sunday his daughter calls in, he says he's happy alone
But the truth is darling he really can't let her go

And she knew he loved her with his heart and soul
Loved her right while she grew old
Always by her side

He goes back he thinks back on those old times
It seemed like such a simpler life the world he saw as a child
