Joan Baez - Jesse lyrics
[Joan Baez - Jesse lyrics]
Where we 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 stairs and the halls
Recalling your step and I remember, too
All the pictures are shaded
And fading in grey and I still set a place
At the table at noon
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 spread on the bed
Is like when you left i 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
I'll fix up my hair we'll sleep unaware
Hey Jesse, it's lonely, come home
