 LYRICS:

 

 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
