Song lyrics Jackie by Sinead O'connor

Jackie left on a cold, dark night
Telling me he´d be home
Sailed the seas for a hundred years
Leaving me all alone
And I´ve been dead for twenty years
I´ve 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 Jackie´s gone
We got lost in the rain"
And I ran to the beach
And laid me down "You´re all wrong", I said
And they stared at the sand
"That man knows that sea
Like the back of his hand
He´ll be back some time
laughing at you"
And 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 shore
For these long years
And I´ll 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
