Karaoké Jesse Janis Ian

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 leaving light on the stairs

No I'm not scared

I wait for you

Hey Jesse

I'm lonely come home

Jesse the floors and the boards recalling your steps and I remember too

All the pictures are fading and shaded in gray but I still set a place on the table at noon

And I'm leaving light on the stairs

No I'm not scared

I wait for you

Hey Jesse

I'm lonely come home

Jesse

The spread on the bed

Is like when you left

I've kept it up for you

And all the blues and the greens have been recently cleaned

And it's seemingly new

Hey Jess me and you

We'll swallow the light on the stairs

We'll do up my hair and sleep unaware

Hey Jesse

I'm lonely come home
