Jackie |
| Jackie left on a cold, dark night |
| Telling me he’d be home |
| He sailed the sea for a hundred years |
| And left me all alone |
| Now, I’ve been dead for twenty years |
| I’ve been washing the sand |
| With my ghostly tears |
| Searching the shores for my Jackie |
| And I remember the day that |
| The young man came |
| Said your Jackie’s gone he’s lost in the rain |
| And I ran to the beach |
| (Laid me down) |
| You’re all wrong, I said as they stared |
| To the sand, that man knows the sea |
| Like the back of his hand, he’ll be back |
| Sometime, laughing at you |
| I’ve been waiting all this time |
| For my man to come |
| Take his hand in mine |
| And lead me away to unseen shores |
| I’ve been washing the sand |
| With my salty tears |
| Searching the shores these long years |
| And I walked the sea forevermore |
| Till I find my Jackie |
| Jackie |
| Jackie |
| Jackie |
