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
  He 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 at the sand"
  That man knows the sea
  Like the back of his hand
  He'll be back some time
  laughing at you"
  And 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 seas forever more
  Till I find my Jackie oh
  Till I find my Jackie oh
  Till I find my Jackie oh
