Josephine Lyrics

Josephine

You sit and watch the people passing by

You looked up at me

And seemed surprised that you had caught my eye

No one sees you looking for a simple conversation

'Cause everyone's too busy with their eyes glued to the pavement

All I did was smile and wave but I could tell it made your day

We're getting older by the day

Waste time looking over your shoulder

It ain't that scary but that's easy for me to say

You know the days go by like the people passing your apartment

I always look to see if you're outside

So I can say hi

Thanks for the invite

Josephine

Your husband owned a cafe called

"C'est La Vie"

I bet you miss him when you smell the coffee

From the new cafe next door

It's lovely of your brother to help you out around the house

I hope he asks you now and then what you're thinking about

I've only seen you twice now but it's nice out maybe I'll stop by

We're getting older by the day

Waste time looking over your shoulder

It ain't that scary but that's easy for me to say

You know the days go by like the people passing your apartment

I think I will bring my guitar next time

Thanks for the invite

I feel a little older inside now

It's gotten colder out

And I ain't seen your door open in a minute

I'm moving

I don't know when I'll be back in this part of Brooklyn

But like your old cafe, that's life, isn't it?

We're getting older by the day

Waste time looking over your shoulder

It ain't that scary but that's easy for me to say

You know the days go by like the people passing your apartment

I always look to see if you're outside

So I can say hi

Thanks for the invite
