You were a teacher who wanted to be taught
You took a chaser and finally got caught
I lost the light of my life to the river, the cruel river's course
And you rode away on that chestnut horse
Jackie cradles your head again
On a path through the clouds on the wings of your bed again

Somewhere silent
Free from violence
Attended by angels, as you float 'tween the islands

Oh, Jackie
Can you hear me
Wherever you are, on the wings of a star?

Oh, Jackie
Is it lonely
Like it is down here, at the dawn of a new year
If it ever comes?

My friend, cold and blue
Jackie, baby, is that really you?
She lost the light of her life to the needle like cruel needles do

Did your spirit sigh from its chrysalis skin
And set sail on a little wind?
Did you row those hidden canals of the sky
Behind black velvet curtains?

Lying silent
Free from violence
Attended by angels, as you (float) float 'tween the islands

Oh, Jackie
Can you hear me
Wherever you are, on the wings of a star?

Oh, Jackie
Is it lonely
Like it is down here, at the dawn of a new year
If it ever comes?
