The Stranded - "Jessie" |
Jessie Written & Composed by M.Corbitt & J.Quennell 2002 Jessie, that's what they call her at work and play Artistic perfection bundled up in one hellauva dame She can make those dark night blues Sweeter and put you in the groove 'Cause Jessie, Jessie that's you I know 'cause I've been there myself Just like you too, yeh Following the queues Playing by her rules Take your time don't rush too soon And you're never gonna be the same When she's through She's the one that takes my troubles away Breathes new life in a dying soul, yeh She'll make you feel like heaven's unreal With a whisper and a touch, She'll take you away Jessie, some would say you are a fallen angel But honesty and love abound in you Of that there is no question Into the spiders web you trap Broken hearts, the discontented and the lonely ones Takin' from the arms of others Who would play those silly mindless games I wanna lover, a friend And that's what I found in you, yeh Breakin' away. taking me to paraidise, I'd say No more petty rules Never knowing which way to please Yeh, I'm free Moving with the breeze Some would say I'm foolish But I disagree She's the one that takes my troubles away Breathes new life in a dying soul, yeh She'll make you feel like heaven's unreal With a whisper and a touch, She'll take you away Jessie, that's what they call her at work and play Artistic perfection bundled up in one hellauva dame She can make those dark night blues Sweeter and put you in the groove 'Cause Jessie I wanna be there with you I wanna lover, a friend And that's what I found in you, yeh Breakin' away. taking me to paraidise, I'd say No more petty rules Never knowing which way to please Yeh, I'm free Moving with the breeze Some would say I'm foolish But I disagree Jessie, my sweet Jessie Why don't you come on home now Sweet, sweet Jessie |
