lyrics

Jessica, I hope it’s true
that he had to break my heart
to learn how to love you.

Falling in love is easy,
he tells you you’re the one,
you don’t have to believe me,
but he said that to me once.

Jessica, the world is cruel.
He had to be untrue to me before
he could be true to you.

The wheel keeps on turning and
there’s no wrong or right, and
I’m not quite trying to warn you or
tell you how to live your life, but

Jessica I hope for you
that by taking all I had
he learned how to give to you.
