lyrics

Jessica was a bright eyed girl. Full of idle dreams.
Born just outside of Wichita, and raised in New Orleans.
Never said much of nothing, but I know this much is true
Jessica, no one could dance quite like you.

She started dancing when she was young. Not much more than three.
She grew up fast with no money then so she learned on Bourbon St.
In worn out shoes and on broken glass, but she smiled all the same.
Jessica, everyone here remembers your name.

When someone like that comes into your life it changes your point of view.
You start to see less of what you have and more of what you do.
I would give damn near anything if I could live that moment again.
To see you smile and dance a while the way she did back then…

Eventually, you were smooth enough to make yourself a name.
Some money here, some classes there, and the chance to dance on stage.
At first glance nobody knew what anyone could see in you
But Jessica, when you danced the world did too.

You made your way through dance contests, magazines, and TV shows
And the more you did and the more you danced, the more your smile would grow
No one could take their eyes off you and no matter where you’d go
You’re still the girl that everyone wants to know

You danced your heart out until the day that your ankles both gave out
You fell to the floor and to the gasps and applause coming from the crowd
You left the lights and you left the stage but that smile never left you
Jessica, no one could dance quite like you.

So, you’re married now and you got 3 kids who all look up to you
They look a lot like your man, but they smile just like you
And you still dance but only with them and I guess that that will do
Jessica, no one can dance quite like you.
No, Jessica. No one could dance quite like you.
No, Jessica. No one could ever dance like you.
