Jackie`s House Lyrics |
||
 (Chapin Hartford)I`ve put a little love note in a bottle Thrown it off the Bay Street Bridge Watch it glide along among the willows And run along the bank with the other kids If that bottle didn`t hang up on the stones It would ride that river with a will of its own Go underground and come up in the creek behind Jackie`s house Jackie`s house I`d hang around until Jackie came out My hands would shake my heart would ache I didn`t know what is was but I first felt love Behind Jackie`s house You could hear a pin drop in that parlor It was horsechair chairs and old lace Jackie sat beside me like a statue The other kids were out playing kids games Those funny feelings strange and unknown They would rise like the river with a will of their own With the risk I took when I first stole a look into Jackie`s eyes Jackie`s eyes I saw forever like an endless sky My hands would shake my heart would ache I didn`t know what is was but I first saw love Behind Jackie`s eyes After all this time Jackie`s heart`s still mine And the love keeps on flowing Behind Jackie`s house, oh ... Now our little ones they laugh and run Down by the creek in the summer sun Jackie and me and the years agree We know what it is, it`s love and it lives here In Jackie`s house oh and in Jackie`s eyes Oh in Jackie`s heart and mine |
