Jackie (MTV Unplugged) lyrics

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, Oh

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
And 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'll walk the sea forevermore
Till I find my Jackie, Oh
Jackie, Oh
Jackie, Oh
Jackie, Oh
Jackie, Oh
