Jesse
Jesse's Return: A Heart's Dance of Longing and Redemption
Lyrics
Oh mother, say a prayer for me
Expressing a plea for maternal support and protection.
Jesse's back in town, it won't be easy
Acknowledging the return of someone named Jesse and anticipating challenges.
Don't let him near me
Desire to be kept away from Jesse, suggesting a fear or unease.
Don't let him touch me
Strongly requesting to avoid physical contact with Jesse.
Don't let him please me
Asking not to be pleased or influenced by Jesse.
Jesse, I won't cut fresh flowers for you
Refusing to engage in romantic or affectionate gestures for Jesse.
Jesse, I won't make the wine cold for you
Continuing the refusal to make special efforts for Jesse.
Jesse, I won't change the sheets for you
Expressing resistance to changing the environment for Jesse.
I won't put on cologne
Declaring the intention not to make personal adjustments like using cologne.
I won't sit by the phone for you
Rejecting the idea of waiting eagerly for Jesse's call.
Annie, keep reminding me
Seeking support from someone named Annie and referencing heartbreak.
That he cut out my heart like a paper doll
Describing the emotional pain caused by Jesse, comparing it to cutting out a heart like a paper doll.
Sally, tell me once again
Requesting a reminder from Sally about how Jesse deceived and caused a downfall.
How he set me up just to see me fall
Recalling the betrayal and manipulation by Jesse.
Jesse, quick come here
Urgently calling for Jesse's presence while promising secrecy.
I won't tell a soul
Committing to keep Jesse's visit confidential, even from oneself.
Not even myself
Emphasizing the need for secrecy about Jesse's return.
Jesse, that you've come back to me
Expressing joy at Jesse's return, despite potential criticism from friends.
My friends will all say "She's gone again"
Anticipating negative comments from friends about the reunion with Jesse.
But how can anyone know what you are to me
Highlighting the difficulty for others to understand the depth of emotions towards Jesse.
That I'm in heaven again because you've come back to me
Connecting Jesse's return to a sense of heavenly bliss.
Oh Jessie!
Expressing emotional intensity with an exclamation of Jesse's name.
Jesse, I'll always cut fresh flowers for you
Committing to continue making romantic gestures for Jesse.
Jesse, I'll always make the wine cold for you
Reiterating the commitment to maintaining romantic efforts for Jesse.
Jesse, I can easily change my mind about you
Indicating a willingness to reconsider and change one's perspective on Jesse.
And put on cologne
Expressing a willingness to make personal grooming efforts for Jesse.
And sit by the phone for you
Reconsidering the decision to wait eagerly for Jesse's call.
Jesse, let's open the wine
Suggesting a desire to celebrate and toast to the heart, symbolizing emotions.
And drink to the heart
Encouraging friends to console each other in their distress.
Which has a will of its own
Attributing a strong will to the heart, emphasizing its independence.
My friends, let's comfort them
Inviting friends to support each other emotionally.
They're feeling bad
Recognizing friends' feelings of sadness and reassuring them.
They think I've sunk so low
Addressing friends' misconceptions about personal circumstances.
Jesse, I'll always cut fresh flowers for you
Reiterating the commitment to romantic gestures for Jesse.
Jesse, I'll always make the wine cold for you
Continuing the commitment to maintaining romantic efforts for Jesse.
Jesse, I will change the sheets for you
Expressing a willingness to make physical changes for Jesse.
Put on cologne
Committing to personal grooming efforts, including using cologne, for Jesse.
And I will wait by the phone for you
Reverting to the idea of waiting eagerly for Jesse's call.
Oh Jesse
Ending with a repeated and emotional call for Jesse.
