Jennifer Eccles Lyrics

White chalk written on red brick
Our love told in a heart
It's there drawn in the playground
Love, kiss, hate or adore

I love Jennifer Eccles and I know that she loves me
I love Jennifer Eccles and I know that she loves me

La la la la la la la
la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
la la la la la la

I used to carry her satchels
She used to walk by my side
But when we got to her doorstep
Her Dad wouldn't let me inside

One Monday morning, found out I'd made the grade
Started me thinking that maybe she'd done the same

I hope Jennifer Eccles is going to follow me there
Our love is bound to continue
Love, kiss, hate or adore

I love Jennifer Eccles, I know that she loves me
I love Jennifer Eccles and I know that she loves me

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Says E of this cover:

"I don't know if Jennifer Eccles actually loves me, but I took the liberty of stating that she indeed 'loves E' at the end of the song, just in case. Nervy."

Seems like i hear about four different voice effects in this particular song. A lot of choices purposely made in the delivery of it.

I usually can't stand music purposely slowed and made (overly) dramatic. But this one I'm really fond of. Probably because I heard this before I ever heard the original.
