A Letter To Jesse Boy Songtext
von Jordan Klassen

Jesse boy I see your diorama display
Explaining why the earth isn′t round
You're never ordinary and you like it that way
Would only tie your feet to the ground

But you′ve got a brother, you've got a sister you know
You're no exception, one of a million
You′ve got some features outside of your control

Jesse boy I see you with that look in your eye
You just want to be left on your own
To marinade in every dream that crosses your mind
Prop them up like studs in your home

But you′ve got a soft spot for turning the lights down low
You've got a millstone chained to your reverie you know

It′ll all turn on its head one day
Your imagination runs away
And you'll have to lose it for a spell
So at last you can feel well
Jesse we will fight to be well


Jesse boy I see you when the tragedy strikes
You′re laying on the living room floor
Not used to disappointment oh it's never polite
I hate to say but there will be more

If you′re not careful, Jesse it tires you out
Sleeping at daytime, never caught hoping out loud

It'll all turn on its head one day
Your imagination runs away
And you'll have to find it, make amends
So that you can dream again
Jesse you and I will contend
Jesse you and I will contend
Jesse you and I will contend
Jesse you and I will contend

It′ll all turn on its head one day
Your imagination runs away
And you′ll have to find it, make amends
So that you can dream again

It'll all turn on its head one day
Your imagination runs away
And you′ll have to find it, make amends
So that you can dream again
Jesse you and I will contend
