"Josephine" lyrics - LORI MCKENNA

Hey Josephine,
I loved you since the day you rolled inside of me.
Hey Josephine,
I hope you have the heart.

Well I do not have a picture,
I have never heard your voice.
In 1963 I did not have a choice.
Well, I was only 16 but I loved the boy.
He had a future
Which a baby could not destroy.

Hey Josephine,
I loved you since the day you rolled inside of me.
Hey Josephine,
I hope you have the heart to forgive me.

Well, ask me all your questions,
I will tell no lies.
I don't expect you'll understand
Or sympathize.
But where I was that moment
Was not a good place to be.
I could not protect myself,
Nevermind a baby.

Well, hey Josephine,
I loved you since the day you rolled inside of me.
Hey Josephine,
I hope you have the heart...

To forgive me...

I hope you have the heart to forgive me...

Hey Josephine,
I loved you since the day you rolled inside of me.
Hey Josephine,
I hope you have the heart...

Well I do not have a picture,
I've never heard your voice.
