Jacqueline
Studyin' a photo of you grinnin' at the kitchen table
Crowned in jewels and royal blue
Bright and young at twenty-two, everybody says I'm just like you
Was that one of many days you suffered through?
Both know sadness too well, I lost you to its spell
Wakin' up without you is wakin' up in hell
I'll never meet you at forty-eight
You won't cry on my weddin' day
You'll never hear my children say your name
Jacqueline, ain't that a shame?
Jacqueline, you're not to blame
I'm just pissed off, bitter I couldn't save my mother
I'm grapplin' with what I've got left
Jacqueline
Searched your note a hundred times
For answers and peace of mind
Waitin' on a letter that'll never come
I missed your call the day before
Could you not take it anymore?
I'm waitin' on someone to wake me up
Jacqueline, ain't that a shame?
Jacqueline, you're not to blame
I'm just pissed off and bitter I couldn't save my mother
I'm grapplin' with what I've got left
Jacqueline
Left your glasses on the kitchen table
Your favorite pair you always wore
Wonder if you knew I'd find them, and I'd fall to the floor
Screamin' out at God, wishin' you'd walk in
Just to kiss me and hold me
Jacqueline
Ain't that a shame?
Jacqueline, you're not to blame
I'm just pissed off and bitter I couldn't save my mother
I'm grapplin' with what I've got left
Jacqueline
Crowned in jewels and royal blue
Bright and young at twenty-two, everybody says I'm just like you
Was that one of many days you suffered through?
Both know sadness too well, I lost you to its spell
Wakin' up without you is wakin' up in hell
I'll never meet you at forty-eight
You won't cry on my weddin' day
You'll never hear my children say your name
Jacqueline, ain't that a shame?
Jacqueline, you're not to blame
I'm just pissed off, bitter I couldn't save my mother
I'm grapplin' with what I've got left
Jacqueline
Searched your note a hundred times
For answers and peace of mind
Waitin' on a letter that'll never come
I missed your call the day before
Could you not take it anymore?
I'm waitin' on someone to wake me up
Jacqueline, ain't that a shame?
Jacqueline, you're not to blame
I'm just pissed off and bitter I couldn't save my mother
I'm grapplin' with what I've got left
Jacqueline
Left your glasses on the kitchen table
Your favorite pair you always wore
Wonder if you knew I'd find them, and I'd fall to the floor
Screamin' out at God, wishin' you'd walk in
Just to kiss me and hold me
Jacqueline
Ain't that a shame?
Jacqueline, you're not to blame
I'm just pissed off and bitter I couldn't save my mother
I'm grapplin' with what I've got left
Jacqueline
