Goodnight, goodnight Josephine
Surrounded by all the days plans
Eyes flickering you're trying
The people who do you
Of light at diplomacy's end
Flickering just in your eyes' deepest ravines
To let a coffee cup warm your hands
I remember you there at the table
"Leave the worrying about him to me Josephine?"
Honey I'd walk into your painting
A blue-green northern light
A speck of comet-tail dust
But, isn't this when the crimes begin?
Goodnight, goodnight
Goodnight goodnight Josephine
I remember you there in the last rays
Eyes flickering, she's trying
Goodnight, goodnight Josephine
Eyes flickering you're crying
Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
Born to persevere
Someone who can say'
Don't believe you Josephine?
Maybe we're born lost
Someone more worry-free
When the people you want to don't
Is it someone for us
Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
Until I'd reappeared
To smother a smile in her hands
