Jewel - Jessica Lyrics
He used to walk with jessicaDown to the dinerTheyd sit and talk for hoursAbout nothin in particularJust bullshit the time awayThats what she used to sayShed wrinkle her nose when she said itThats how you know she meant itJessicaJessicaShed call him at nine a.m.To see how sleep had been treatin himAnd though they were never loversThey were soulmates under coverTheyd drink beer and sit aroundOr just sit still and not make a soundAnd he would shudder to thinkOf what life would be likeWithout his best friend -slash- shrinkJessicaBridge:Shes an angel at his tableForced to feel but not to seeBlinded by her absenceHaunted by her memoryIf only you were able to see the angel at your tableHe got a phone callFrom her motherHe said, yeah, right stop kidding around.He felt his heart fall to the groundSince then everydaySeems to feel like winterEverything is colorlessAs he cant see it with herJessicaJessicaHe could easily have been with herDriving home in the carIt was her birthdayIts sick how things work out that wayNow at night when he sleepsA watch over him she keepsShe whispers in his earFor his heart to hearJessicaJessicaIts amazing how a soul can leaveSuddenly from a bodyRendering it uselessAnd stealing its desire to breatheOne moment here then goneWith no forwarding addressLove no longer has a houseResidence in fleshReligion without a templeNo place to take your worship toNo God for the eyes to seeNo fruit to lay at the feetOf jessicaJessicaIf only you were able to seeThe angel at your tableThen youd understand whyYou never got to say goodbyeTo jessicaTheres no such word as goodbyeFor jessicaShes always standing byJessicaTranscribed by james reach
