Jackie

Sitting beneath that red bud tree
I love Jackie and Jackie loves me
It's been 30 years since we were 17
I guess that we were just meant to be

Oh, I'm glad I got to love ya
Oh, it was written on the sun
But somedays might last forever
But not this one

Doctors said you'd have me till fall
The leaves were changing and I recall
Blowing all around my feet
But darlin' even the wind has needs

Oh, I'm glad I got to love ya
Oh, it was written on the sun
But somedays might last forever
But not this one

Those northern Pines are calling you to bathe
With the best views underneath there, shade

I faked the strength to hear your goodbyes
I became like water with tears in my eyes
You closed your eyes and you fell asleep
I thought it'd be you burying me

Oh, I'm glad I got to love ya
Oh, it was written on the sun
But somedays might last forever
These days might last forever
Somedays they might last forever
But not this one
