jackie don't go

jackie was the focus of my fantasies

there was passion in the schoolyard

upon the autumn leaves

cuttin' class was gettin' easy

throwin' good sense down the drain

and while your touch would always please me

it was love that eased the pain --

believin' that good times forever last

now love is a thing of the past

jackie no

jackie don't go

you're a hard act to follow --

jackie go slow

jackie please

i'm down on my knees

let's do it again

i was head over heels

i was hard in love

i put jackie on a pedestal so high above

rock 'n' roll became our savior --

that alone was all it took --

and when it came to fool behavior

me and jackie

we wrote the book

believin' that good friends forever last

now love is a thing of the past

jackie no

jackie don't go

you're a hard act to follow --

jackie go slow

jackie please

i'm down on my knees

let's do it again

jackie stay -- i'm living each day

in the streets of the city callin' your name

jackie please

this is insane

let's do it again

in the beginning all the time we spent together

never further than a heartbeat away

did you try and tell me

jackie

you were leavin'

i couldn't see beyond yesterday
