Josephine is a female name, a feminine form of Joseph. It may refer to:
Not tonight Josephine
In an army's strength
Therein lies the denouement
From here you're haunting me
By the Seine so beautiful
Only not to be of use
Impossible
So strange
Victory - 1,200 spires
The only sound
Moscow burning
Empty like the Tuileries
Like a dream
Vienna seems
Only not to be of use
Impossible
In the last extremity
To advance or not to advance
I hear you laughing
Even still you're calling me
"Not tonight, not tonight, not tonight"
Take me back Josephine to that cold and dark December
I am missing someone but I don't know who
Now, I'm standing alone and I'm trying to remember
Sometimes I wonder how I ever started loving you
Noon time wind can you blow
For me one more time and take me on back to the start
Where the midnight moon shines so bright
Nearly pulled us up to Heaven by the strings of our heart
Take me back Josephine to that cold and dark December
I am missing someone but I don't know who
Now, I'm standing alone and I'm trying to remember
Sometimes I wonder how I ever started loving you
Morning sun shine on me
Come light inside my window and rest on my brow
Kiss my eyes when I sleep
And carry me back home if my dreams will allow
Take me back Josephine to that cold and dark December
I am missing someone but I don't know who
Now, I'm standing alone and I'm trying to remember
Sometimes I wonder how I ever started loving you
Take me back Josephine to that cold and dark December
I am missing someone but I don't know who
Now, I'm standing alone and I'm dying to remember
Sometimes I wonder how I ever started loving you
Josephine is not your kind
She believes in magic and rhymes
You tried hard to make her fine
But she sleeps with acid
Do her parents know it's for real
When she asks them to be high
I don't know
But they sure will be aware of it
She smokes clouds every single night
Should be glad that she's alive
In her head she sees butterflies with pistols
Josephine is not your kind
She believes in ravers with dimes
You tried hard to see her eyes
But they're made for others
She runs to the club with some cash
And spends them all on pleasure
In her head there's some old drug
Taking care of her
Gets the very best of a man
And pays him with a laugh
I'm writin' this letter, my darlin, from high on a hill.
We've been marchin' ten days and we're just outside Hawkinsville.
It's been snowin' all night and we ain't got no more kersosene.
It's colder than hell,
Hope you're doin' well,
Josephine.
There's a fever in camp and our boys are too sick to fight.
We done lost ol' Calvin;
Weaver won't make it through the night.
I overheard the Captain say it's the worst he's ever seen.
I'm losin' some weight
but I'm still standin' up straight,
Josephine.
CHORUS
Tell the children I miss 'em and wish I could kiss 'em once more.
Bet they've growed a foot since they waved me goodbye at the door.
Tell Mama and Daddy I'm all right
And just one more thing:
I love you, I love you, I love you, Josephine.
There's three thousand Union troops camped at the river below.
And six hundred of us -
At least there was two nights ago.
Will Irwin deserted and
They hung him down by the stream.
Good God, I'm so scared,
Keep me in your prayers,
Jospehine.
The order came down: we attack tonight at nightfall.
If we can stop 'em right here
We can win this war, once and for all.
You know, I killed a Union boy last week -
Bet he wasn't fourteen.
He looked just like our son,
Forgive me for what I've done,
Josphine.
CHORUS
Tell the children I miss 'em and wish I could kiss 'em once more.
Bet they've growed a foot since they waved me goodbye at the door.
Tell Mama and Daddy I'm all right
And just one more thing:
I love you, I love you, I love you, Josephine.
And lastly, my darling, in case I should be killed...
Don't grieve me too long
Promise me that you will
Marry another and don't let him treat our babies mean,
And when he's holding you, won't you think of me too, Josephine?
CHORUS
Tell the children I miss 'em and wish I could kiss 'em once more.
Bet they've growed a foot since they waved me goodbye at the door.
Tell Mama and Daddy I'm all right
And just one more thing:
I love you, I love you, I love you, Josephine.
Oh, I love you, I love you, I love you, Josephine.
If I were Napoleon, you could be my Josephine
We could go to drive-in films in my red convertible
If I were Napoleon, I might be in magazines
I'd write some science fiction - science fiction about
You could be my Josephine: just you and your chaperone
Let you be my Josephine, Josephine
If I were Napoleon, you could be my lady love
Look into my soft blue eyes
Run your fingers through my hair
If I were Napoleon, you could be my turtle-dove
Living out in Corsica in our summer cottages
And you could be my Josephine and we could be Siamese
twins
Trapped behind these four white walls
Waiting for someone to call
Somethings gonna have to give
And I don't know when
Seems its taking for too long
I've been stuck on this same song
I've been stanging on the edge
And I'm gonna fall
Promise me
You won't follow me
Cause I've gone down the wrong road
And I've lost my own way back
Its all my fault I can't hide it
I've tried to run I can't fight it
Everbody dreams
Why can't I just make a scene
I've been blinded by the dark
Hoping for a little spark
Diving in a pool of sharks
Though I cannot swim
Trying to understand myself
All my musics on the shelf
Got the dust as I try
to search within
Promise me
You won't follow me
Cause I've gone down the wrong road
And I've lost my own way back
Its all my fault I can't hide it
I've tried to run I can't fight it
Everbody dreams
Why can't I just make a scene
Falling all the time
I turned your life so upside down. I don't know how you stayed or why.
Looking always over my shoulder; exactly what I wanted to find was already mine.
Josephine, Josephine
But I saw the horizon and I had to know where it all ends.
I lived so long with the shadows, Lord, I became one of them.
Oh what a fool I've been.
Oh what a fool I've been. Josephine, Josephine
Now I take the hand I took for granted and I set it free.
Oh what a fool I've been
Oh what a fool I've been. Josephine, Josephine
Some folks see the horizon and never need to know how it all ends
Leave the shadows behind; don't go chasing after 'em.
You lock the door and put them old records on. I hear you crying along.
Oh what a fool I've been
Oh what a fool I've been.
No more will the final words be the tears in your eyes.
Oh how I tried.
Oh how I tried.
Oh Josephine, you are free.
Josephine, Josephine, you’re not the girl for me
Josephine, Josephine, you’re not the girl for me
Well I found out, we were wrong and never meant to be
Well I found out, we were wrong and never meant to be
Well, I’ve got this life to waste my time
It’ll take some time to ease my mind
I’ve got this life and that’s for sure
Josephine is walking out that door
And you know that, time can change you
And you know the clock will age you
But you know that I can’t blame you
You’re not who you used to be
Live an learn
Its Stone I turn
She’s rolling right by me
Find me a good girl, one with soul
Your water’s too shallow
Find me a good girl, one with soul
Your water’s too shallow
Well, someone with money can buy you rings
Stuck in these hard times sweeping change
I’ve got this life and that’s for sure
Josephine is walking out my door
And you know that, time can change you
And you know the clock will age you
And you know that, time can change you
And you know the clock will age you
And you know that, time can change you
And you know the clock will age you
But you know that I can’t blame you
Hey Josephine, I loved you since the day you rolled inside me
Hey Josephine, I hope you have the heart...
Well I do not have a picture
I've never heard your voice
In 1963 I did not have a choice
Well I was only sixteen
But I loved the boy
He had a future which a baby could not destroy
Hey Josephine, I loved you since the day you rolled inside me
Hey Josephine, I hope you have the heart to forgive me
Well ask me all your questions
I will tell no lies
I don't expect you'll under stand or sympathize
But where I was that moment
Was not a good place to be
I could not protect my self, nevermind a baby
Hey Josephine, I loved you since the day you rolled inside me
Hey Josephine, I hope you have the heart...
...to forgive me
I hope you have the heart to forgive me
Hey Josephine, I loved you since the day that you rolled inside me
Hey Josephine, I hope you have the heart...
Well I do not have a picture
I've never heard your voice
If I were Napoleon, you could be my Josephine
We could go to drive-in films in my red convertible
If I were Napoleon, I might be in magazines
I'd write some science fiction - science fiction about you

Living out in Corsica in our summer cottages
And you could be my Josephine and we could be Siamese twins
Let you be my Josephine, Josephine
Josephine
When you're here every thought I ever had becomes clear
But when you're far the only light I ever see is the stars
And when you go the feelings burn as they grow
Cause to me to me you're beautiful
But when you're here Josephine the stars don't shine so bright
But yeah with me Josephine you'd never sleep at night
But when you go I never sleep as I do
And in my dreams I hold you like I never will release
But when you're here Josephine the stars don't shine so bright
But yeah with me Josephine you'd never sleep at night
I'm dreaming of you
Are you dreaming it too
I'm dreaming of you
I scream your name
But when you're here Josephine the stars don't shine so bright
But yeah with me Josephine you'd never sleep at night
I'm dreaming of you
Are you dreaming it too
I'm dreaming of you
I scream your name
Oh Woah
Oh Woah
You send me texts and
you call my phone,
and everytime you
gotta say goodbye.
You always tell me
I should come alone,
and you keep me in disguise.
You take my hand and you tie it down,
to a bed inside your head.
You pull me close then you turn around,
just to make me cry instead.
Your love is, woah oh.
Your love is, woah oh.
Your love is ice
my heart is frozen.
In your avalanche.
I cannot breathe, my lungs are closen.
In your avalanche.
I cannot move when you hold me.
I wanna scream but no one hears me.
I'm buried deep, in your avalanche.
Oh woah
It's hard to stand on my own two feet,
cuz all I am is what you want me to be.
I need somebody that can pull me out,
cuz it's really getting harder to breath.
I need air cuz my chest feels tight,
I get a little crazy cuz it just ain't right.
Your love is ice
my heart is frozen.
In your avalanche.
I cannot breath, my lungs are closen.
In your avalanche.
I cannot move when you hold me.
I wanna scream but no one hears me.
I'm buried deep, in your avalanche.
Please let me out, my love is dying.
I wanna shout but my soul is trying.
I'm buried deep, in your avalanche.
I'm feeling numb but my heart is aching.
I cannot feel this my bodies shaking.
I'm buried deep, in your avalanche.
Your love is ice
my heart is frozen.
In your avalanche.
I cannot breath, my lungs are closen.
In your avalanche.
I cannot move when you hold me.
I wanna scream but no one hears me.
God's woman... what's going on?
I know things seem messed up sometime
You stressed out and you can't handle the situation
Sometime it feels like you lacking the guidance
And you don't know what to do... but stay strong
And keep in mind that he always loves you...
It's what it is... that's right sugar love
Come on...
Josephine, the times are getting tough
Seems to me... you just wont get enough
The rain, wont wash away, your sins...
You'll be here, to do them all over again...
Yo, I know this chick from the hood named Courtney Cox
And her brain is easy to pick like faulty locks
She's awfully hot, asshole burning like tobasco
She used to be thick, it's like where the hell her ass go
Started smoking weed and graduated to the pipe
Thought that she could quit but her calculations wasn't right
Infactuated with the life of dope fiends and crack pushers
Prostituting for old pimps who mack hookers
Putting dope in the cook, searching for her vein
Tracks all over her arms, she never felt the pain
The monkey on her back is now a gorilla
Fiending for a hit knowing one day it's gon' kill her
The clinic didn't help (nope) she just another young black woman
Destroying her pretty image and her health
Got me thinking to myself, damn, how could this happen?
I seen her on the corner, nodding off, sniffin' and scratching
She wakes up, with an urge to get high
Everyday, the same routine, needing the mood of fix to get by
So she reaches for her purse, grab the bag and the needle
Tie a sock her arm and start shooting up the diesel
Had a flesh back, screwing some dude up in his hashback
The night before, body still sore, holding her ass crack
A regular John, she met her through Tom
She passed out with the syringe still stuck in her arm
Dying a slow death, oh, she losing her dear mind
From the troubles of the world, feeling cursed by mankind
Uh, caught up in a desperate rage, was blessed with AIDS
Lost her appetite, hardly slept in days
Now it's too late, praying to Jesus, she fucked around
With the wrong penis, contaminated with diseases
Two months pregnant, carrying around her fetus
But they found her on Broad, in the dumpster, behind the cleaners
Josephine, what's wrong, baby?
Come on...
Yo, what your momma gonna think of you girl?
Her little baby's all doped up, strung out on the world
Try'nna make some quick cash for a hit of that stash
Listen, baby, you growing up much too fast
Uh, this goes out to every project and every ghetto
For those getting high, using drugs on every level
Living your life, day and night, getting stoned
You better leave those drugs alone, feel me?
Up all night, under the party lights
Same old popping and party hopping
All of your so called friends, are leading you down the wrong road
Leading you back to crack, it's a known fact
It is time, that you need me, I'll be there, to help ya
I'll be your leaning pole when you're falling down
Trapped behind these four white walls
Waiting for someone to call
Somethings gonna have to give
And I don't know when
Seems its taking for too long
I've been stuck on this same song
I've been stanging on the edge
And I'm gonna fall
Promise me
You won't follow me
Cause I've gone down the wrong road
And I've lost my own way back
Its all my fault I can't hide it
I've tried to run I can't fight it
Everbody dreams
Why can't I just make a scene
I've been blinded by the dark
Hoping for a little spark
Diving in a pool of sharks
Though I cannot swim
Trying to understand myself
All my musics on the shelf
Got the dust as I try
to search within
Promise me
You won't follow me
Cause I've gone down the wrong road
And I've lost my own way back
Its all my fault I can't hide it
I've tried to run I can't fight it
Everbody dreams
Why can't I just make a scene
Falling all the time
Dreamt I was back with the pirates and cats of my sommerville
The girl in the alphabet shirt covered in dirt lives on the hill
Well, my sweet Josephine,
Are you still racing stray dogs
Across the old stream?
My neighborhood queen,
Are you still kissing cowboys that cry, Josephine?
She stole, my grandmother's watch, a treasure to touch
To keep time to herself
Her mind, was a very big house, we got lost there for hours
Until August fell.
Well, my sweet Josephine
Are you still racing stray dogs
Across the old stream?
My neighborhood queen,
Are you still kissing cowboys that cry, Josephine?
You say you're alright, but Josie it's time
You gotta get your feet on the ground
But she says: "No, don't you see we have wings?
It's the funniest thing, it's just that no one knows."
No one knows, sweet Josephine...
Well, my sweet Josephine
Are you still racing stray dogs
Across the old stream?
My neighborhood queen,
Are you still kissing cowboys that cry, Josephine?
My neighborhood queen,
This is where I want to be when the violent sky just opens up to reveal the sun and shine a little light on our friends.
'Cause that'll be the day when we're swimming through the rays in love, making the most of what we've got before it ends.
This is your one chance, hell if you'll waste it. I can't let it happen. I love you too much.
Then you'll see it's like rain on a beautiful day,
All the clouds go away and we're just singing and playing and alright.
Then you'll know, no matter where the wind blows us, we've always got each other and we're dancing this dance on time.
This is where I want to be when that summer sun comes crashing down and makes that autumn sound that rings out and carries us through winter.
Awake in a dream and know the feeling when "choice" exudes a different meaning. a certain overt opalescence that showers the scene in incandescent light from the other side that swirls and churns in glassy eyes.
i can feel my body fold into the cold, blue and white sunlight. I can feel my pulse thicken up with bright red blood and I...
caught in irreverant and eratic action, where voices converse over the static. a tired lull. a short distraction. "be careful!" cries the sky, emphatic. and then the winds stops. and then the world starts to dissolve.
i can feel my body fold into the cold, blue and white sunlight. I can feel my pulse thicken up with bright red blood and I...
Hustle and flow!
papa may have been a rolling stone but he's always home hugging his little girl, playing games and all and that's admirable. so how's she so sad and sore? girl's been touched by a devil or something. she's always running like she's scared when nothing's there, it's a little weird!
she's screams without a sound. her crying's getting louder now. i think i hear her falling down.
eraser falls. great white sharks and mirror balls spinning disco's loudest triumph at the world.
she's my girl, afflictions and all.
took too many doses, things are bright and they keep bending makiing everything just rise and fall as if the world were breathing lungs, full of atmosphere with such an arrogant air about the air and it's humid, it's liquid, it's warm and it's cool and...
she's screams without a sound. her cries are getting stifled now. i think i hear her drowning out.
eraser falls. great white sharks and mirror balls spinning disco's loudest triumph at the world.
she's my girl, afflictions and all.
oh my god, it's been building for years but the screaimng gets too loud to hear, alright?
Take an oath to keep this in silence. wall to wall we opened the cesspit with these lips, fractured and painted red. and split it wide to empty the contents
I live, Head up in the clouds. Hush-hush dreams, don't let it out.
i have a notion in myself that we all could save our souls without your help.
Cause I don't wanna be the last kind of my kind
That sounds like a lonely existence, six billion dead without a soul liberated.
Revolution number nine. Oh, will we pull him out in time?
I can't imagine a world where everyone does nothing that they want to, that's no fun
I can't imagine a world where they're all dancing and we're the only ones who hear the song
I need somebody to care but i seems there's something in the air
I once had some toys I loved but they're all swallowed in the mud and rusted.
Cause i would gladly be the first one here to die.
Get up cause it's morning cousin. they found your mother in a ditch all tore up! then it starts snowing, it's too cold and my arms itch. NOSEBLEED!!! now all that "bright white's" blood red.
now i dont know but oh, i got that feeling that says this is it.
every time i look outside i see that lone sun shining bright, makes me sad to be alive. every day it's just that same old gray staring back at me, so why do i keep on living?
intense a rush now to the head of blood that flows oh-so-intense through our hearts, so rhythmic. it strolls our veins so effortless and keeps us entertained and interested.
singing that same old lover's song about a heart strung out too long. it just stops.
it's a real shame cause we almost got clean.
When you’re here
every thought I ever had
becomes clear
But when you’re far
the only light I ever see
is the Stars
And when you go,
the feelings burn
as they grow
Cause to me,
to me you’re Beautiful
But when you’re here
Josephine
the stars don’t shine so bright
But Yeah with me
Josephine
You’d never sleep at night
But when you’re here
Josephine
the stars don’t shine so bright
But Yeah with me
Josephine
You’d never sleep at night
But when you go
I never sleep as I do
And in my dreams
I hold you like I never
will release
But when you’re here
Josephine
the stars don’t shine so bright
But Yeah with me
Josephine
You’d never sleep at night
But when you’re here
Josephine
the stars don’t shine so bright
But Yeah with me
Josephine
You’d never sleep at night
I’m dreaming of you
Are you dreaming it too
I’m dreaming of you
I scream your name
But when you’re here
Josephine
the stars don’t shine so bright
But Yeah with me
Josephine
You’d never sleep at night
But when you’re here
Josephine
the stars don’t shine so bright
But Yeah with me
Josephine
You’d never sleep at night
My Josephine
I’m dreaming of you
Are you dreaming it too
I’m dreaming of you

[Pretty Ugly:]
The Josephine that I knew, had a fiend for the rich guys
Old fashion girl, judged a man by her shoe size
If you had on the right Nikes, looked like the right type
Paid her the right price, she give you the green light
She was a different breed, she smoked different weed
Every week her hair done, she had a different weave
She was in and out of bars, she was in and out of cars
She was on and off the law, she was in and out of drawers
The chick a dime, I admit, I even tried to hit
I told her I was broke as shit, but I got the magic stick
I'm that confident, she said I need the cash
A different time, a different place, I could have the ass
Years went pass, before I seen her again
Now she slim, and I don't think she been in the gym
So I asked her how she been, she said I'm down with the men
Now I'm seen, but I caught AIDS when I was fucking with them
Theres rain on my window
But Im thinking of you
Tears on my pillow
But I will come through
Josephine, Ill send you all my love
And every single step that Ill take
Ill take for you
My,josephine
Theres a storm on my radar
But I can still fly
Oh,and you are the reason
The blue in my sky
Josephine
A life without meaning
I was walking away
In the coldest of winters
Night becomes a day
Josephine, Ill send you all my love,
And every single step that Ill take
Ill take for you
My,josephine, Ill send you all my love, babe
Josephine, Ill send you all my love, babe
---and when Im far away (oh, so far away)
Ill send you all my love
(bridge)
(chorus):
---- ...... Ill send you all my love
(rea):
......josephine...
---- ......Ill send you all my love
(chorus):
Josephine walang kadala-dala
Josephine na naman ay lumuluha
Kulang pa ba ang sugat mo
Kulang pa ba ang natamo
Para ika'y sumuko
Inibig ka naman ngunit bakit mo sinasaktan
Gusto ng huminto ngunit puso ko'y nag-aabang
Na isang araw malaman mo
Pag-ibig ko irog ay totoo
At tayo'y sa isat-isa
Josephine mukha ka nang tanga
Josephine wag ka nang umasa
Kawawa naman ang puso mo
Hindi ka pa ba kinakalyo
Pwede ka nang sumuko
Inibig ka naman ngunit bakit mo sinasaktan
Gusto ng huminto ngunit puso ko'y nag-aabang
Na isang araw malaman mo
Pag-ibig ko irog ay totoo
At tayo'y sa isat-isa
Na isang araw malaman mo
Pag-ibig ko irog ay totoo
At tayo'y sa isat-isa
Inibig ka naman ngunit bakit mo sinasaktan
Gusto ng huminto ngunit puso ko'y nag-aabang
Inibig ka naman ngunit bakit mo sinasaktan
Gusto ng huminto ngunit puso ko'y nag-aabang
Na isang araw malaman mo
Pag-ibig ko irog ay totoo
At tayo'y sa isat-isa
Oh, Josephine,
you re the only girl for me, Josephine.
When you look you come my way
you're for me, oh, my Josephine.
Oh, Josephine,
I like your lips to press mine, Josephine,
to have and hold you all the time,
you're for me, oh, my Josephine.
Why not tonight, Josephine?
I know that you're my queen.
But when you go I will know,
you're not my Josephine.
Oh, Josephine, you're my pride,
you're my joy, Josephine,
what we've got I can't deny,
you're for me, oh, my Josephine,
Why not tonight, Josephine?
I know that you're my queen.
But when you go I will know,
you're not my Josephine.
Oh, Josephine,
I will love you till I die, Josephine,
I'm not telling you a lie,
you're for me, oh, my Josephine.
Oh, Josephine, you're my pride,
you're my joy, Josephine,
what we've got I can't deny,
you're for me, oh, my Josephine.
You're for me, oh, my Josephine,
you're for me, oh, my Josephine.
Hey Josephine,
I loved you since the day you rolled inside of me.
Hey Josephine,
I hope you have the heart.
Well I do not have a picture,
I have never heard your voice.
In 1963 I did not have a choice.
Well, I was only 16 but I loved the boy.
He had a future
which a baby could not destroy.
Hey Josephine,
I loved you since the day you rolled inside of me.
Hey Josephine,
I hope you have the heart to forgive me.
Well, ask me all your questions,
I will tell no lies.
I don't expect you'll understand
or sympathize.
But where I was that moment
was not a good place to be.
I could not protect myself,
nevermind a baby.
Well, hey Josephine,
I loved you since the day you rolled inside of me.
Hey Josephine,
I hope you have the heart...
To forgive me....
I hope you have the heart to forgive me...
Hey Josephine,
I loved you since the day you rolled inside of me.
Hey Josephine,
I hope you have the heart....
Well I do not have a picture,
I've never heard your voice.
There's rain on my window
But I'm thinking of you
Tears on my pillow
But I will come through
Josephine, I'll send you all my love
And every single step I take
I take for you
Josephine, I'll send you all my love
Josephine, I'll send you all my love
There's a storm on my radar
But I can still fly
And you are the reason
The blue in my sky
Josephine, I'll send you all my love
Josephine
A life without meaning
I was walking away
In the coldest of winters
Night becomes day
Josephine, I'll send you all my love
And every single step I take
I take for you
Josephine, I'll send you all my love

JOSEPHINE YOU GOTTA LET HIM GO

AND LET A NEW LOVE GO
JOSEPHINE PLEASE STOP HOLDING ON
Oh I feel there's something missing
From this heart of mine
I've looked around forever
But it's hard to find
But it ain't so hard to see
That you're lonely just like me
Together we can spred our
wings and fly
(Chorus)
And I will be your king
If you will be my queen
We can ride wild horses
Through this land of broken dreams
And I will be your prince
If you will be my Josephine
Sailing under a shining star above
To the kingdom of love
There's an empty feeling waiting
In your heart tonight
But if you look up to the heaven
There's a shining light
You know my love is true
Cos I'm lonely just like you
Just spread those wings
And see how high we fly
(Chorus)
If we believe in miracles
We'll sail this ship to shore
I'll take you to another world
Where I can love you more
And more
I feel pretty good
I feel all right
And I've been thinkin' maybe
I could spend the night
I know you've been sad
I know I've been bad
But if you'd let me
Make you ribbons from a paper bag
[Chorus:]
Josephine
You're so good to me
And I know
It ain't easy
Josephine
You're so sweet
You must taste just like sugar & tangerines
I won't make a sound
Sleep on the ground
When you wake I will
Drive you into town
I missed your smile
Your schoolgirl style
But I never had much fun
Maybe the very first mile
[chorus]
Don't you know
I watched you walkin' home from school
Your friends on the old playgrounds
You never looked so down
Won't you come and help me with these cuts of mine
I've disconnected my heart
And cut myself on the wires
Josephine
I know I was wrong
I knew all along
But I got so far from my home
I never thought I'd be so lonesome
[chorus]
They say he's trouble waiting to happen
Like he's a bottle filled with gasoline
I say he's waiting, but not for trouble
I say he's waiting for Josephine
And he cruised on the weekends just to be seen
And they all made fun of him yelling "Where's Josephine?"
And he climbed the tower and he painted "I Love You"
In the brightest color I've ever seen
And it got him in trouble and he landed in the drunk tank
And his only call was for Josephine
And he cruised on the weekends just to be seen
And they all made fun of him yelling "Where's Josephine?"
One night he got high and decided to call her
He tried to talk to the beauty queen
She said hello, and his heart it just melted
And his only words were "Goodbye, Josephine"
And he cruised on the weekends just to be seen
I feel pretty good
I feel all right
And I've been thinkin' maybe
I could spend the night
I know you've been sad
I know I've been bad
But if you'd let me
Make you ribbons from a paper bag
Josephine
You're so good to me
And I know
It ain't easy
Josephine
You're so sweet
You must taste just like sugar & tangerines
I won't make a sound
Sleep on the ground
When you wake I will
Drive you into town
I missed your smile
Your schoolgirl style
But I never had much fun
Maybe the very first mile
Don't you know
I watched you walkin' home from school
Your friends on the old playgrounds
You never looked so down
Won't you come and help me with these cuts of mine?
I've disconnected my heart
And cut myself on the wires
Josephine
I know I was wrong
I knew all along
But I got so far from my home
Josephine, why do you have to leave
to a place beneath the dirt,
a place beneath the dirt?
remember you so very small
the thunderstorm would make you cry?
too young to understand the lightening was
just telling those clouds to please be quiet.
ah~~
and it's okay you fell asleep x3
they are on the couch, they are in my house
and it's okay you fell asleep x2
and it's okay you woke up somewhere else
Oh Josephine, why do you have to leave
to a place above the earth,
a place above the earth?
and it's a promise i can make x3
Hello Josephine
How do you do
Do you remember me baby?
Like i remember you
You used to laugh at me and holler: Woo Woo Woo
i used to walk you home
i used to hold your hand
You used to use my umbrella
Every time it rained
You used to cry so much..it was a cryin' shame
You used to live over yonder
By the railroad track
When it rained you couldn't walk..i used to tote you on
my back
Now you try to make believe..it was a thrill at that
Hello Josephine
How do you do
Do you remember me baby?
Like i remember you
You used to laugh at me and holler: Woo Woo Woo
I had a friend called Joe
When friends were hard to find
He had a restless soul
With something on his mind
One day I went away
And when returned to the scene
Not to find restless Joe, no
But to find Josephine
I asked her what her game was
She said Joe had left the scene
I asked her what her name was
She said, they call me Josephine
Josephine
Josephine
It took a while to click
But then I got the gist
The girl by my side
Was the guy I'd missed
I took her for a beer
To talk about old times
Just to find the beer, dear
Was now a sweet white wine
I asked her what her game was
She said Joe had left the scene
I asked her what her name was
She said they call me Josephine
Josephine
Josephine
Josephine
So we talked all night
And we just can't pretend
Although I lost old Joe, yo
I've got a new girlfriend
I asked her what her game was
She said Joe had left the scene
I asked her what her name was
She said they call me Josephine
I asked her what her game was
She said Joe had left the scene
I asked her what her name was
She said they call me Josephine
Josephine
Josephine
Josephine you are running with the stream.
And you are falling through the cracks.
Can't you just hear them talking in the background,
in the background of your mind. They speak to you.
Did you hear the song of the star-crossed lovers?
It occured in a valley far far away.
The mountains they kiss the sky.
And the clouds rain down stars on them.
The stars rain down upon them
Josephine. Do you know what you mean?
Josephine. Do you know what you mean to me?
If I whisper secrets to the stars
then I think you will understand wo we are. Who we really are.
We will kiss the sky and hold on only to the moon.
And we will dance in the light that it so kindly provides us.
If I was to die tonight would me meet in the heavens?
And if I was to die tonight would I ever see you again?
And would I ever see you again?
Josephine. do you know what you mean?
Josephine. do you know that you mean everything to me?
Josephine you mean to me the world.
Didn'cha know what I mean
When I said 'I love you Josephine'? Yeah
Josephine.
Nothing I say does justice to you
Or lights up the day the way that you do
Josephine.
Like a beautifil queen
You deserve a crown
my Josephine. Yeah
Josephine.
Well
I pick up the phone and give you a call
You come around with your sneakers and all
Josephine.
Well
sit right back. Suppose I went away. Ah
honey.
Would your love turn sour and moldy green?
When I take from you the light of yoodle-eh-hi-hoo
Would I make you sad
my Josephine?
You arrived on the scene
You made me glad I'm alive
my Josephine. Yeah
Josephine.
Well
nothing I say does justice to you
Lights up the day the way that you do
