[00:02.82] \"Jackie\"
[00:07.32] by poppyran
[00:10.72]
[00:11.85] Jackie left on a cold, dark night
[00:14.83] telling me he\'d be home,
[00:18.90] he sailed the sea for a hundred years
[00:22.24] and left me all alone.
[00:25.43]
[00:26.74] now i\'ve been dead for twenty years
[00:29.51] i\'ve been washing the sand
[00:31.47] with my ghostly tears
[00:33.37] searching the shores for my
[00:36.88] jackie oooh.
[00:40.10]
[00:41.19] and I remember the day
[00:42.85] that the young man came
[00:44.73] said your jackie\'s gone
[00:46.71] he\'s lost in the rain
[00:48.57] and i ran to the beach
[00:51.86] (laid me down)
[00:54.78]
[00:56.41] you\'re all wrong, i said
[00:58.14] as they stared to the sand,
[01:00.07] that man knows the sea
[01:02.07] like the back of his hand,
[01:03.78] he\'ll be back sometime
[01:07.03] Laughing at you.
[01:10.78]
[01:13.04] i\'ve been waiting all this time,
[01:15.76] for my man to come
[01:17.96] take his hand in mine
[01:20.06] and lead me away to unseen shores.
[01:25.93]
[01:27.15] i\'ve been washing the sand
[01:29.11] with my salty tears
[01:31.11] searching the shores these long years
[01:34.71] and I walked the sea forevermore
[01:42.66] till I find my jackie oooh,
[01:51.05]
[01:52.10] jackie oooh,
[01:55.94] jackie oooh,
[02:00.01] jackie ooo-oo-ooh.
