Jessica

    (February 1998)

    Do our old songs
    make you sad
    playing on the radio?

    Do you ever get
    tears in your eyes
    when you see places we used to go?

    Jess, you were the brightest of the stars.
    I’m sorry that we never made it very far.
    I never meant for things to turn out this way.
    We just never concentrated on today.

    What’s the matter with you anyway?
    Why don’t you listen to what I say?
    What the hell is it you’re trying to do?
    Can’t you understand when I say that I love you?

    I’m sorry that I made you
    so mad
    by never letting you know.

    I’m sorry that I was
    so sad
    when you said you were letting me go.

    Jess, I only wanted the very best;
    I’d never be happy with anything less.
    And all the things I would no longer do
    were things I would not do without you.

    I never made so many wishes on the sky,
    and I never before made an angel cry.
    I’m sorry for all the awful things that I said,
    And I’m sorry for all the things we never did.
