Lyrics
MALIBU
By Randi McMatthew
What she?s got?. eyes the color of the sea
What she?s got? high thoughts and dignity
What she?s got? I really had to see
What she?s got to steal your love from me.
Her name is Jane, but you call her Malibu
And now you claim, she?s found the best of you
You say it?s her; she says it?s you
Do you agree?
That what she?s got?
Could steal your love from me?
That?s no sunburn on her cheekbones
She cries crocodile tears
The girl could use a little pity
She?s afraid she interferes
I?ll walk along the beach
What else is there to do?
Be invisible, while you work that one out with Malibu?
And all those secrets that dart between you two
You let her strength rise up and tower over you
Well she?s nobody that we even knew
Now look how everything gets left up to Malibu.
Fortune really played on me
She lifts her skirt: she dips her hat into the sea
A ring, a child, an anniversary
I won?t be me
When she steals your love from me.
