JESSE

JOAN BAEZ

Lyrics and music:Ian Janis

Key:

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 he arth all apart it h angs on my heart.

And I'm l eaving the light on the stairs

No, I'm not scared; I wait for you

Hey, Jesse, it's lonely, come home.

Jesse, the stairs inthe hall, recalling

Your step; and I remember too.

All the pictures are shaded and fading in grey

And I still set aplace 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 be recently cleaned

And are seemingly new; hey, Jesse, 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.
