[Verse 1]
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
[Refrain]
Hey Jesse, it's lonely
Come home
[Verse 2]
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
[Refrain]
Hey Jesse, it's lonely
Come home
[Verse 3]
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
[Outro]
Hey Jesse, I'm lonely
Come home
