Jackie

Lisa Stansfield · Other Songs - Lisa Stansfield

(steinberg/kelly)



I woke up with your name on my lips

I woke up with your lips on my imagination

Did you wake up with my name on your lips

Or am I all alone in this infatuation



Chorus:

Jackie when you touched my soul in the candlelight

Jackie when I lost control in the heat of the night

Jack jack jackie, can't get you off my mind



I woke up thinking it was you

But I was all alone in my lonely room

Did the same thing happen to you

If you don't feel what I feel

I don't know what I'd do



Chorus



I didn't know a love could feel this good

I never let anyone inside

I pushed and I shoved

I fought off a love

But with jackie I've got nothing to hide



Repeat verse 1 then chorus to fade
