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
