lyrics

Jack and Jill

Verse 1
Lost my heart in yours,
Quenched my thirst for more.
But I keep tumbling down that hill.
But I have no Jack, I am only Jill.
Keep waiting for the fall,
Waiting for you to call.
Lift me up on your shoulders,
So I can be tall.
Oh, Jack. Take me home to your bed.
So I can stitch up your head.

Chorus 1
Oh, Jack. Oh, Jack.
I promise I won't get attached.
But say you'll meet me by the well.
How I love the stories that you tell.
Oh, me. Oh, my.
How I do love your lullabies.
But I won't miss you when we part,
Cause I won't let you steal my heart.

Verse 2
And I've been tripping over my feet,
Cause you've been so darn sweet.
I've been walking to a new beat,
"See you there, by the tree, at a quarter past three."

It's been such a breeze.
Like a dream, when we meet.
Can't quite recall. But we know what we shared.
It must have been neat.

Chorus 2
Oh, Jack. Oh, Jill.
I'll meet you there at the top of the hill,
I'll take your coat,
I brought my kite,
We'll take turns,
We won't fight.
Oh, Jill. Oh, Jack.
As a matter of fact, my lonely boy.
You make me smile.
You bring me joy.

Bridge
Not looking, not cooking, just having fun!
Oh, why did I have to be the sappy one?
I'm not grieving when you're leaving.
Every time she's away I wonder if she's been thinking the same.
I'm just giving you my time.
Always wishing she was mine!
Oh, Jill.
Oh, Jack. I will.
You're my heart attack.

Chorus 3
Oh, Jack. Oh, Jack.
I said I wouldn't get attached.
But you've been hiding love in laugher.
So like the tale: I've been tumbling after.

Oh, Jill. Oh, Jill.
I'll meet you there at the top of the hill.
Like a cliché, so sickly sweet.
You say I've "no shame",
Just like last week.

Oh, me. Oh, my.
I've fallen for your lullabies.
Who'd have known?
Who'd have seen?
That'd end up,
You and me?
