lyrics

Jessie

Verse 1: She brought the spring with bluebells and brooks
Rivers of love and birds that sing so brightly
I lost my man: and I’m sad to say I loved him
But I’m glad he found someone like you

Chorus: Jessie his heart was never mine
You were there long before I came
Jessie his love would never die
Jessie now it’s just me

Verse 2: Sweet honey lips with dark shiny hair
Smiling her charm: she’s twenty-one and lovely
In Stellenbosch no man could quite resist you
I’m the ugly one: you had it all

Chorus: Jessie his heart was never mine
You were there long before I came
Jessie his love would never die
Jessie now it’s just me

Verse 3: A floral dress a touch of perfume
A blossom in bloom: She’s a vision of the morning
I know my man: he tried so hard to love me
But no heart can lie: it’s only you…

Chorus: Jessie his heart was never mine
You were there long before I came
Jessie his love would never die
Jessie now it’s just me

Coda: OO I could never be the woman you are
Jessie now it’s just me
Jessie now it’s just me
Jessie now it’s just me
