Who knew Jesse McCartney was a lyrical genius? McCartney revealed that he wrote Leona Lewis' "Bleeding Love" for his longtime girlfriend.
21-year-old McCartney gave the song to Lewis and it went on to become an international success.
He says, "I originally wrote it for my own record. I kept thinking about being in love so much that it hurts.
"I was away from my girlfriend for fourth months at the time and I really wanted to throw in the towel (quit) and fly home.
"I was so in love that it was painful. It was like bleeding, it cut me open. That's how my head was and that idea just really fit the song."
