Jackie

I was sitting in the pews on a Sunday morning

When the heavy wooden doors swung wide

Tall, dark, and handsome with your long hair flowing

You brought a little heaven inside

I looked at you, Jackie, and my spirit knew

Before you even said a word

You were the guy I was praying for

And the Lord made sure He heard

Oh, you're patient and you're gentle, with a heart so wide

You'd do anything for anyone, standing by my side

Even keeping up the house while I'm working through the day

You love me in a kind, compassionate way

There will never be another, no one else will ever do

I could never love another man the way that I love you

You asked me to marry you, and I said yes

A year later, Ginny was our beautiful girl

Two years after that, we had Jack Jr.

Bringing so much joy into our world

Three years later, Casey came along

We thought our family was finally complete

But God said no, and we adopted Lexi

Four beautiful kids making life so sweet

Oh, you're patient and you're gentle, with a heart so wide

You'd do anything for anyone, standing by my side

Even keeping up the house while I'm working through the day

You love me in a kind, compassionate way

There will never be another, no one else will ever do

I could never love another man the way that I love you

I've always said when our days are done

I wanna go together, holding your hand

Walking side by side into the setting sun

With my faithful, loving man

'Cause you're patient and you're gentle, with a heart so wide

You'd do anything for anyone, standing by my side

Even keeping up the house while I'm working through the day

You love me in a kind, compassionate way

There will never be another, no one else will ever do

I could never love another man the way that I love you

Yeah, Jackie, you're the guy I was praying for

And my prayer came true
