Josephine
Andrew Shier Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Waiting 'round, waiting rooms
I got a call, momma she was crying, said you're hurt
It's all a blur to me
Wherever love is to be found, you'll be around, you're next to me
You caught a bug along the way, it's safe to say, infectiously
Spread your wings, little bee
Its critical, your wings were forged through flames and fear
No coincidence to me
Don't be scared, bid the masses around to be more like you
Let love rule with your hug brigade
Wherever love is to be found, you'll be around, you're next to me
You caught a bug along the way, it's safe to say, you're next to me
Spread your wings, little bee
Lend your love to those in need, Josephine
So lend your heart to those in need
Let love spread to those who need
Spread your wings little bee
Your heart was made for those in need, Josephine
