Jackie Sinead O Connor Cover lyrics

Jackie left on a cold dark night
Telling me he`d be home
Sailed the seas 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

And 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 sun
``That man know that sea like the back of his hand,
He`ll be back sometime laughing at you``

Well 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 these long years
And I`ll walk the sea forever more

Till I find my Jackie oh
Jackie oh Jackie oh Jackie oh
