Jewel六岁时，她就开始歌唱生涯，她经常跟随父母在所居住的爱斯基摩村落里演出，并倍受当地村民喜爱。直到她考上了密歇根州的Interlochen美术学院。在学院的学习过程中她还参与了戏剧的表演，在学期末的会演节目《Spoon River Anthology》中担任主演。她在毕业后去圣地亚哥找到了工作，但是她逐渐受不了了这种朝九晚五的工作方式，于是她决定把自己的主要精力放在音乐上。
歌词
You and I walking slowly
你和我漫步走着
Hand in hand
手牵着手
Footprints in the sand
任脚印在沙滩上涂鸦
Watch the wind as it plays
微风嬉戏
Throwing shadows across your face
云影掠过你的脸
The sky was so blue
天空蓝的那么远
Your eyes so green
你眼睛的碧绿深邃却亮在眼前
The air was glittering
空气也在闪闪发光
So sudden so swift
只一瞬间
Love came to us
爱的火花就在你我间擦出
Just like a gift
就像梦想的东西从天而降
I lived here, you lived far away
我住这里 你却住的很远
Our lives called us back, now we could not stay
我们的生活召唤我们回去，此刻我们不能停留
With a sad sort of smile you took my hand
你握着我的手，带着点悲伤微笑着对我说
Said while we are apart you hope I understand that

You'll be holding me
我会牵挂着你
And I will be holding you
你也会牵挂着我
Through those long nights, my love will be pulling you through
以后将要度过的那些长长的夜里，我的爱会一直陪着你
When you see the stars

When you feel the air
空气轻抚你脸颊的时候

Hypnotized by her smile
为她的微笑深深着迷
But your job meant that you had to travel
因为工作你不得已而奔波
But we weren't ready for you to go
