Karaoké Jesse Roberta Flack

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

Hey Jesse

It's lonely

Come home

Jesse

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

All the pictures are fading

They're shaded in gray

But I still set a place 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

It's like when you left

And I kept it for you

And 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

We'll fix up my hair and sleep unaware

Hey Jesse

I'm lonely

Come home
