I turned your life so upside down
I don't know how you stayed or why
Lookin' 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.
O what a fool I've been
O what a fool I've been
Josephine,
Josephine.
Now I take the hand I took for granted
And set it free
O what a fool I've been
O 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 chasin' after them
You lock the door and put them old records on
I hear you cryin' along
O what a fool I've been
O what a fool I've been
No more will the final words
Be the tears in your eyes
O how I tried
O, how I tried!
O, Josephine,
You are free.
O, Josephine
Josephine.
