Josie - Dion

Just got a letter from Josie this morning

Had to read between the lines

She was sitting all alone

Gazing through the window blinds

She folded up her hands and she was crying

Wearing the same old mournful smile

For an old love god knows where

All the children, they laugh at the old woman as she passes

With old fashioned clothes and tape-mended glasses

Josie, Josie, hold on for me

Comin' from California

To be with you, Josie

The world holds no love for a driftin' boy like me

Travellin' fast on gods wind to be with you Josie

Remember the garden you once walked

To put your troubled mind at ease

Well it is gone now to buildings

They even took the Cypress tree

Cinders take the place of fallen leaves

We’ll spend time out there talking

You know I’d love to fix you tea

I could tell you of people

All the places I got to see

Josie hold on please

Josie, Josie hold on for me

Comin' from California to be with you Josie

The world holds no love for a driftin' boy like me

Travellin' fast on God’s wind to be with you Josie

Josie, Josie hold on for me

Comin' from California to be with you Josie
