Jack was nimble
Jack, he was quick
Jack could jump right over the candle stick


Now he's gone and I'm burning
All alone

Yeah he's gone and I'm burning still, oh no

A beautiful story left incomplete

Ooh, how he knocked me off my feet

Sitting by my window pane

Thinking I might go insane
Why'd he only shoot me halfway to the moon


And I can't get over that, over that
Baby after loving Jack
There's no going back, going back


Jack and Jill they went up that hill
To fetch a pail of water but there was a spill

And Jill came tumbling down, all alone
Yeah it all came tumbling down, oh no


Pulled to the ground by gravity
Will it remain a mystery?


Sitting by my window pane
Thinking I might go insane
Why'd he only shoot me halfway to the moon


And I can't get over that, over that
Baby after loving Jack

There's no going back, going back

A beautiful story left incomplete

Ooh, how he knocked me off of my feet

Sitting by my window pane

Thinking I might go insane
Why'd he only shoot me halfway to the moon


And I can't get over that, over that
Baby after loving Jack
There's no going back, going back


Oh no, no, after loving Jack
There's no going back
