Jesse Lyrics - Joan Baez

Jesse come home, there's a hole in the bed 

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 in the halls, recalling 

Your step; and I remember too. 

All the pictures are shaded and fading in grey 

And I still set a place on 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, 

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. 

We'll swallow the light on the stairs 

I'll fix up my hair, we'll sleep unawares 

Hey Jesse, it's lonely, come home
