Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Jesse, come home
There's a hole in the bed
Where we slept
Now it's growing cold
[Verse 2]
Jesse, your face
In the place where we lay
By the hearth all apart
It hangs on my heart
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
Jesse, the stairs and the halls recalling your step
And I remember too
All the pictures are shaded and fading and grey
And I still set a place at the table at noon
[Verse 5]
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
[Verse 6]
Jesse, the spread on the bed
It's 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
[Verse 7]
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
