Josephine - Chris Cornell

Josephine where can you be now?

Again the sun is rising on my troubled heart

Don’t deny you know you and I

Are the making of what fate

Just can’t pull apart

My sweet Josephine

Won’t you come and marry me?

I got every kind of love that you will ever need

Dying here on bended knees

Sheets of rain

Cold and gray

Run down the page

As I write your name

With just the weight of your silence now

Crashing all around me while I screamed it out loud

My sweet Josephine

Won’t you come and marry me?

I got every kind of love that you will ever need

Dying here on bended knees

Like a raven in a cage

Blood on my birth

Just won’t wash away

Like a stitched together doll

My feet to the flame

As I follow the blame

For someone else’s pain

For someone else’s pain

Rivers of black ink flood

A tapestry of flesh and blood around my frame

A living shrine just for you if you’ll be mine

Golden band upon your hand

Leave this endless winter behind

My sweet josephine

Won’t you come and marry me?

I got every single kind of love that you will ever need

Dying here on bended knees

Dying here on bended knees

Dying here on bended knees

My Josephine
