Jessie Was a Dreamer

Early in September My Jessie left her home Took the first train to the city To make it on her own I felt she needed me I searched this neon (new young) town In each and every bar I've seen I showed a photograph around They said: Jessie was a dreamer Always flying high She wanted each and everything No door she wouldn't try Jessie was a dreamer Wouldn't live a lie But she was only seventeen And much too young to die Too young to die I met a fallen angel She knew my baby well She said: Jessie went for paradise And ended up in hell There I met her at last The stranger by her side She laughed at me and past And I lost her to the night She said: Jessie was a dreamer Always flying high She wanted each and everything No door she wouldn't try Jessie was a dreamer Wouldn't live a lie But she was only seventeen And much too young to die She was much too young Jessie was a dreamer Always flying high She wanted each and everything No door she wouldn't try She was a dreamer Wouldn't live a lie But she was only seventeen And much too young to die
