I remember a girl on her cell phone, surrounded by her friends Eyes flickering, she's trying to smother a smile in her hands Is it someone for us, someone more worry free Someone who can say, "Leave the worrying about him to me, Josephine" I remember you there in the last rays of light at diplomacy's end Eyes flickering, you're crying, "But isn't this when the crimes begin?" When the people you want to don't And the people who do, you don't believe do you, Josephine? I remember you there at the table, surrounded by all the day's plans Eyes flickering, you're trying to let a coffee cup warm your hands
Maybe we're born lost, born to persevere But, honey, I'd walk into your painting until I reappeared As a speck of comet tail dust A blue green northern light Flickering just In your eyes' deepest ravines Goodnight, goodnight, Josephine Goodnight, goodnight, Josephine Goodnight, goodnight, Josephine Goodnight, goodnight Goodnight, goodnight Goodnight, goodnight Goodnight, goodnight Goodnight, goodnight Goodnight, goodnight Goodnight, goodnight Goodnight, goodnight, Josephine Josephine Josephine Josephine
