Rebecca Rebecca
Knows how to take things with a Grain of salt

Rebecca Rebecca
Laid back and smart she Understands it all

Rebecca Rebecca
Strong and supportive With the warmest stare

Rebecca Rebecca
I bet if I mess up she will Stand right there

But I often go wandering, wonder who I am
and I often think of her, think of what we'll plan
to do

She's all I ever wanted In Boston
I'll no longer Seek another

She deftly brought some fun To Boston
As December comes Shes seems the one

Rebecca Rebecca
The light touch she gives Belies her stance and ground

Rebecca Rebecca
Wise like an owl Always about to smile

But I often go wandering, wonder who I am
and I often think of her, is she in the plan
for me

She's all I ever wanted In Boston
I'll no longer Seek another

She deftly brought some fun To Boston
As December comes Shes seems the one

Rebecca Rebecca
Knows how to take things with a Grain of salt

Rebecca Rebecca
Laid back and smart she Understands it all

Rebecca Rebecca
Strong and supportive With the warmest stare

Rebecca Rebecca
I thought if I messed up She would stand right there

about

The Heartsleeves Boston, Massachusetts

Neo Eclectic, Soul Reflected, Sounds From Real Life!

Born in the glory and pageant of the noble working cities of Boise, Cleveland, Schenectady, Boston and Syracuse, "The Heartsleeves" is the voice of the no frills sincerity of real world American life.

We write our songs live, and refine them into a melancholy powder of sweet painful regret and sprinkle it on hearty soul pop.
