Jesse - Jonathan Edwards

Jesse sees her life before her

Stand naked in the dark

Here comes the sun, pull down the curtain

For it may touch and leave a mark

Children try to talk together

They simply cannot catch the phrase

Sometimes laughter is somehow murdered

Shattered glass a thousand ways

Children sing with fantasy words

Playin' little backyard games

Jesse sings to them without words

And they love her until she complains

But then again, her youth has ended

She’s walking where she used to crawl

Cryin' now before their laughter

Children finished first of all

Children sing with fantasy words

They’re playin' little backyard games

Jesse sings to them without words

They love her until she complains

La la la la la la la

La la
