Jackie and Wilson Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Starynight85 

Cover art for Jackie and Wilson lyrics by Hozier

I hear this as the story of a summer fling. A guy is high(red eyed) and is hanging with fellow low-lifes at a bar and a woman comes in and quickly leads to a meaningless fling. They're reckless and irresponsible and both know how it isn't going to last and its a quick and shallow passion. In a short time, they're apart again and the guy is left to use their tiny romance as inspiration.
