Jessie's Song

By Nail Bunny

Sweet sweet sorrow,
as I hear you,
as you say goodbye...

My heart leaps,
I feel the pain,
and try hard not to cry.

Sweet sweet sorrow,
as I hear you,
as you say goodbye...

As you stand there,
distant from me,
with the ones you know,
I feel sorrow sweet within,
and I don't want to go.

Sweet sweet sorrow,
as I hear you,
as you say goodbye...

I see you there,
beautiful,
dressed up like a doll.
A perfect piece of porcelin
viewed now from afar.

I feel sick as I meet your eye,
As we stop to say goodbye,
And I know as we embrace,
this may be the last time I see your face.

And now I pray for your safety
'Cuz it's all that I can do,
and everyday that I'm alive,
I KNOW I'll think of you.
