(Chapin Hartford)

I?§£â?? put a liittle love note in a bottle throw it off the Bay Street
Bridge
Watch it glide along the willows
I?§£â?? run along the bank with the other kids
If that bottle didn?§£Ë? hang up on the stones
It would ride that river with a will of its own
It?§£â?? go underground and come up in the crecek behind

Jackie?§£â?? house, Jackie?§£â?? house
I?§£â?? hang around until Jackie came out
My hands would shake my heart would ache
I didn?§£Ë? know what is was but I first felt love
Behind Jackie?§£â?? house

You could hear a pin drop in that parlor it was horsechair chairs and old
lace
Jackie sat beside me like a statue
The other kids were out playing kids?§£â?žames
Those funny feelings strage and unknown
They would rise like the river with a will of their own
With the risk I took when I first stole a look into

Jackie?§£â?? eyes, Jackie?§£â?? eyes
I saw forever like an endless sky
My hands would shake my heart would ache
I didn?§£Ë? know what is was but I first saw love
Behind Jackie?§£â?? eyes

After all this time Jackie?§£â?? heart?§£â?? still mine
And the love keeps on flowing behind Jackie?§£â?? house, oh ...
Now our little ones they laugh and run down by the creek in the summer
sun
Jackie?§£â?? and me and the years agree
We know what it is, it?§£â?? love and it lives here
In Jackie?§£â?? house oh and in Jackie?§£â?? eyes
Oh in Jackie?§£â?? heart and mine
