Unseen Shores

Jackie left on a cold, dark night
Telling me he’d be home,
He sailed the sea for a hundred years
And left me all alone

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 to the sand,
“That man knows the seas
Like the back of his hand,
He’ll be back sometime
Laughing at you”

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 shores these long years
And I walked the sea forevermore
‘Till I find my Jackie oooh
