"jessie paints a picture of a trailer by the sea" lyrics  what song is
this from and who sings it?

The song is "Jessie", sung and written by Joshua Kadison, from the
album "Painted Desert Serenade".

On a few web sites, the lyrics are written like this -

"Jessie paints a picture about how it's gonna be.
By now I should know better, you're dreams are never free.
But tell me all about our little trailer by the sea.  ...."

For an example, see:

"Jesse - Joshua Kadison"

But it appears that the actual lyrics are these:

"Jessie paint your pictures 'bout how it's gonna be.
By now I should know better, your dreams are never free.
But tell me all about our little trailer by the sea; ...."
