Jessie Lyrics

Joshua Kadison Jessie

FROM A PHONE BOOTH IN VEGAS
JESSIE CALLS AT 5 AM
TO TELL ME HOW SHE'S TIRED OF ALL OF THEM
SHE SAYS "BABE
I BEEN THINKING 'BOUT A TRAILER BY THE SEA
WE COULD GO TO MEXICO...
YOU
THE CAT
AND ME
WE'LL DRINK TEQUILA
AND LOOK FOR SEA SHELLS
NOW
DOESN'T THAT SOUND SWEET?"
OH
JESSIE
YOU ALWAYS DO THIS
EVERYTIME
I GET BACK ON MY FEET

JESSIE PAINT YOUR PICTURES
'BOUT HOW IT'S GONNA BE
BY NOW I SHOULD KNOW BETTER
YOUR DREAMS ARE NEVER FREE
BUT TELL ME ALL
ABOUT OUR LITTLE TRAILER BY THE SEA
JESSIE YOU CAN ALWAYS SELL
ANY DREAM TO ME
OH
JESSIE YOU CAN ALWAYS SELL
ANY DREAM TO ME

SHE ASKS ME HOW THE CAT'S BEEN
I SAY
MOSES HE'S JUST FINEBUT HE USED TO THINK ABOUT YOU ALL THE TIMEWE FINALLYTOOK YOUR PICTURES DOWN OFF THE WALLOH, JESSIE, HOW DO YOU ALWAYS SEEMTO KNOWJUST WHEN TO CALL?
SHE SAYS
GET YOUR STUFF TOGETHERBRING MOSES AND DRIVE REAL FAST
AND LISTEN TO HER PROMISE
I SWEAR TO GODTHIS TIME IT'S GONNA LAST
.

I'LL LOVE YOU IN THE SUNSHINE
LAY YOU DOWN IN THE WARM WHITE SAND
AND WHO KNOWS
MAYBE THIS TIME
THINGS'LL TURN OUT
JUST THE WAY YOU PLANNED
