Jill Sobule - I Swear I Saw Christopher Reeve (Mackinac Island Charm) Lyrics




You know, it's not pronounced ""Mackinack""
It's ""Mackinaw,"" Mackinac
It's an Indian name, but it almost sounds French
Mackinac, Le Mackinac

Quaint as crocheting
Silent as that c
Just came to Mackinac
Came here with me

It's like Bermuda in Michigan
Mackinac, Mackinac
So tranquil I hardly need tranquilizers
Mackinac, no Seconal

No moving vehicles
No glitz, no buzz
Preserving a history
That never quite was

So magically sweet and so sublime
They came here to shoot ""Somewhere in Time""
So real and yet so like make-believe
I swear I saw Christopher Reeve

You'll never guess where we met
Mackinac, Mackinac
He's a bit of pudge, but I really didn't mind
Mackinac, Sir Mackinac

Time can't remove
What we had on that trip
The kiss in my vestibule
The stain on my slip

Quaint as crocheting
Silent as that c
I just came to Mackinac
Came here with me

So magically sweet and so sublime
Almost don't care that there'll be no next time
When he flew away, left me to grieve
I swear I saw Christopher Reeve
