Jack and Sally

Jack and Sally

A Poem by Sweet Emotions
"

This is another song, written for the same girl that "Alive for Me" was written for.

"

You asked me if I’d be Jack if you were Sally

I told you I would and I meant it

Now where have all your dreams gone?

You told me you’d marry me someday

Is that day just a myth now?


Sally do you remember the days

We spent so close together?

I loved the way you held me so close

Don’t die before I can hold you again

 

It hurts to see you do all this

Destruction won’t fix anything

It’s not that hard to throw your pills away

Come back to reality for me

I won’t survive if your heart stops beating

 

Sally do you remember the days

We spent so close together?

I loved the way you held me so close

Don’t die before I can hold you again

 

You were always my angel

Now you’ve gone so far away

The color left your eyes once so bright

Sally, what happened to forever?

 

I can’t watch from the sidelines anymore

While your soul is consumed by the drugs

Day by day more of you is gone

Don’t leave me with just your empty shell

I’d die instead if it means you’ll be saved

 

Sally do you remember the days

We spent so close together?

I loved the way you held me so close

Don’t die before I can hold you again

I like the over all song... but I would do the arrangement differently:

Sally do you remember the days
We spent so close together?
I loved the way you held me so close
Don’t die before I can hold you again x2

You asked me if I’d be Jack if you were Sally
I told you I would and I meant it
Now where have all your dreams gone?
You told me you’d marry me someday
Is that day just a myth now?
It hurts to see you do all this
Destruction won’t fix anything
It’s not that hard to throw your pills away
Come back to reality for me
I won’t survive if your heart stops beating

Sally do you remember the days
We spent so close together?
I loved the way you held me so close
Don’t die before I can hold you again x2

You were always my angel
Now you’ve gone so far away
The color left your eyes once so bright
Sally, what happened to forever?
I can’t watch from the sidelines anymore
While your soul is consumed by the drugs
Day by day more of you is gone
Don’t leave me with just your empty shell
I’d die instead if it means you’ll be saved

Sally do you remember the days
We spent so close together?
I loved the way you held me so close
Don’t die before I can hold you again x2
