Lyrics

Jesse, come home There's a hole in the bed Where you slept Now it's growing cold Jesse, your face In the place where we lay By the hearth, all apart It hangs on my heart And I'm leaving the light on the stairs No I'm not scared, I wait for you Hey Jesse, it's lonely, come home Jesse, the floors and the boards Recalling your steps And I remember, too All the pictures are fading They're shaded in grey But I still set a place On the table at noon And I'm leaving a light on the stairs No I'm not scared, I wait for you Hey Jesse, it's lonely, come home Jesse, the spread on the bed Is like when you left I've kept it for you All the blues and the greens Have been recently cleaned And are seemingly new Hey Jess, me and you We'll swallow the light on the stairs Fix up my hair We'll sleep unaware Hey Jesse, it's lonely, come home
