Lyrics for Jessica by Jewel:
| | | Artist: | Jewel |
| | Album: | Miscellaneous | | Track: | Jessica | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 100 | | | | Lyrics: | He used to walk with Jessica
Down to the diner
They'd sit and talk for hours
About
nothin' in particular
Just bullshit the time away
That's what she used to say
She'd
wrinkle her nose when she said it
That's how you know she meant
it
Jessica
Jessic
She'd call him at nine a.m.
To see how sleep had been treatin'
him
And though they were never lovers
They were soulmates under cover
They'd drink
beer and sit around
Or just sit still and not make a sound
And he would shudder to
think
Of what life would be like
Without his best friend -slash-
shrink
Jessica
Bridge:
She's an angel at his table
Forced to
feel but not to see
Blinded by her absence
Haunted by her memory
If only you were
able to see the angel at your table
He got a phone call
From her mother
He
said, "Yeah, right stop kidding around."
He felt his heart fall to the groun
Since then
everyday
Seems to feel like winter
Everything is colorless
As he can't see it with
her
Jessica
Jessica
He could easily have been with her
Driving home in the
car
It was her birthday
It's sick how things work out that way
Now at night when he
sleeps
A watch over him she keeps
She whispers in his ear
For his heart to
hear
Jessica
Jessica
It's amazing how a soul can leave
Suddenly from a
body
Rendering it useless
And stealing its desire to breathe
One moment here then
gone
With no forwarding address
Love no longer has a house
Residence in
flesh
Religion without a temple
No place to take your worship to
No God for the eyes
to see
No fruit to lay at the feet
of Jessica
Jessica
If only you were
able to see
The angel at your table
Then you'd understand why
You never got to say
goodbye
To Jessica
There's no such word as goodbye
For Jessica
She's always
standing by
