Song lyrics downloaded from: https://www.albumsongandlyrics.com ------------------------------------------ Sinead O'connor - Jackie ------------------------------------------ Jackie left on a cold, dark night Telling me heŽd be home Sailed the seas for a hundred years Leaving me all alone And IŽve been dead for twenty years IŽve been washing the sand With my ghostly tears Searching the shores for my Jackie-oh I remember the day the young man came He said, "your JackieŽs gone We got lost in the rain" And I ran to the beach And laid me down "YouŽre all wrong", I said And they stared at the sand "That man knows that sea Like the back of his hand HeŽll be back some time laughing at you" And IŽve been waiting all this time For my man to come Take his hand in mine And lead me away To unseen shores IŽve been washing the sand With my salty tears Searching the shore For these long years And IŽll walk the seas forever more Till I find my Jackie oh Till I find my Jackie oh Till I find my Jackie oh Jackie oh Jackie oh Jackie oh
