Trisha Yearwood – Jackie's House lyrics

Album: Thinkin' About You

(Chapin Hartford)

I� put a liittle love note in a bottle throw it off the Bay Street
Bridge
Watch it glide along the willows
I� run along the bank with the other kids
If that bottle didn� hang up on the stones
It would ride that river with a will of its own
It� go underground and come up in the crecek behind

Jackie� house, Jackie� house
I� hang around until Jackie came out
My hands would shake my heart would ache
I didn� know what is was but I first felt love
Behind Jackie� 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�ames
Those funny feelings strage 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� eyes, Jackie� eyes
I saw forever like an endless sky
My hands would shake my heart would ache
I didn� know what is was but I first saw love
Behind Jackie� eyes

After all this time Jackie� heart� still mine
And the love keeps on flowing behind Jackie� 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� love and it lives here
In Jackie� house oh and in Jackie� eyes
Oh in Jackie� heart and mine
