A life lived
Jack and Jill went up the hill
To fetch a pail of water.
And on the top, they built a life,
A son, a home, a daughter.
But as the saying we know goes,
"Nothing gold can stay".
One day they came tumbling down,
They held each other all the way.
But not to fret, they're still together
Their love, it still holds strong;
Through the grave, the underworld
They laugh, they sing their songs.
Now at the top of that big hill
If you care to look and see,
You'll see the ghosts of Jack and Jill
Smiling, full of glee.
