Jessica Lyrics - Jewel

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

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 

Photos 

He got a phone call 

From her mother 

He said, "yeah, right stop kidding around." 

He felt his heart fall to the ground 

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 it's 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 

Jessica
