lyrics

Jackie, in your eyes
Takin’, all the skies
And magic, so composed
And lifted, high above
I, try so hard to explain
Lord said Jackie
All the times
Back again

Jackie, tell me twice
Story, of your life
Am I not a man?
Try to hard to, see
Can’t you let it be?
I, try to so hard to explain
Lord said Jackie
Try now
On this swing

Chorus
And I
Traveled down, by the boot you placed on me
And I
Try so hard, but the swim it seems up stream

Jackie, all the while
Kickin’, baby Nile
And traffic from the river and ocean it seems
Tried so hard not to let it go
I try, to find your flow
I, try so hard to explain
Lord said Jackie
Open arms
Once again

And bus stop standing
See you with that flowing hair
Jackie, all aware
And maybe in a dream
I might then stand a chance, home
With this prayer
I try so hard to explain
Lord said Jackie
Open arms
Once again


Chorus
And I
Traveled down, by the boot you placed on me
Seems
Rowing up on the stream that goes all week
And I
Don’t understand the way you make it so hard
Find
And all of these dreams that make me all open arms

Chorus
And I
Traveled down, by the boot you placed on me
Seems
Always that I must be swimming up stream
A
Although the reasons that make me drag pa down
And I
Try so hard not to be but with all
