Josephina

Lyrics

Josephina, there's so much I want to know
 I've known you for all of mine
 But not all of yours
 You're not a stranger
 No, nothing could be further
 I look back and I wonder
 What you were like, long before
 Josephina, if I asked you, would you tell me
 The fact from the fancy
 And the dreams in between
 Tell me a story
 All about yours truly
 Photographs from the past
 Imagine the mystery
 
 Didja get your head lost in a daydream
 Cinderella, waiting for her charming
 Did ya break a heart, like little girls often do
 Pigtails and painted toes
 All dressed up in your mother's clothes
 Can you shine the light
 Ah, can you shine the light
 Oh, please can you shine some light
 Yeah, can you shine the light
 Shine the light on a shadow
 ♪
 Josephina, would you lay down your defenses
 So i can make sense of
 Those colors fading to grey
 It's not that you're hiding
 Something, I'd never imply
 Yesteryear I may be gone
 Can't say the same for today
 ♪
 Yeah, Josephina
 ♪
 Ah, Josephina
 ♪
 How else am I to know, that all the while
 There was a mischievous look, behind that smile
 It's hard to tell, when innocence comes and goes
 I'm sure that there were times, life could be unkind
 Without a shoulder to cry on
 Can you shine the light
 Ah, can you shine the light
 Yeah, please can you shine some light
 Yeah, can you shine the light
 Yeah, can you shine the light
 Shine the light on a shadow
 ♪
 (Ah-ah-ah)
 ♪
 (Ah-ah-ah)
 (Ah-ah-ah)
