Josephine
Dino Desi & Billy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Didn't 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 dasy the way that you do
Josephine.

Like a beautiful 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
Josephine.
