Jesse Songtext
von Dottie West

Jesse come home there′s a hole in the bed
Where we slept now it's growing cold
Hey Jesse your face in the place
Where we lay by the hearth all apart
It hangs on my heart
And I′m keeping the light on the stairs
No I'm not scared I wait for you
Jesse it's lonely come home


Jesse the floors and the boards
Recalling your steps and I remember too
All the pictures are fading and shading in gray
But I still set a plate on the table at noon
And I′m keeping 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 oh I′ve kept it for you
And all the blues and the greens
Have been recently cleaned and are seemingly new
Hey Jess me and you
Will swallow the light on the stairs
We'll fix up my hair and sleep unaware
Hey Jesse I′m lonely come home
