Jesse

At thirteen Jessie knew too much for her own good
Her search for independence was misunderstood
A small town's unforgiving when you make mistakes
She broke every rule there was to break

A Greyhound crossed the border saw her turn sixteen
No bridge she wouldn't burn to chase this wayward dream
High heeled shoes and lipstick she looked twenty-one
Jessie's troubles had only just begun

We're all trying to find our way
Some of us run, some of us stay
When you get the urge to go
There's no way to fight it, you can't stop a rolling stone
And the road goes on and on
But your heart will lead you home

Jessie turned eighteen the day the baby came
A child of wild desire from a long gone flame
For everything that's gained there's always something lost
Still too young to understand the cost

Now Jessie's feeling way beyond her twenty years
And sometimes in the night regret can lead to tears
What started as a need to spread her newfound wings
Has seen her come full circle home again

We're all trying to find our way
Some of us run, some of us stay
When you get the urge to go
There's no way to fight it, you can't stop a rolling stone
And the road goes on and on
We're all trying to find our way

Some of us run, some of us stay
When you get the urge to go
There's no way to fight it, you can't stop a rolling stone
And the road goes on and on
But your heart will lead you home

And the road goes on and on
But your heart will lead you home
