Josephine Lyrics - Higher Truth - 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 

You will ever need 

Dying here on bended knees 

Sheets of rain 

Cold and grey 

Run down the page 

As I write your name 

With just the weight 

Of your silence now 

Crashing all around me 

While I scream it out loud 

My sweet Josephine 

Won't you come and marry me 

I got every kind of love 

You will ever need 

Dying here on bended knees 

Like a raven in a cage 

The blood of my birth 

Just won't wash away 

Like a stitched together doll 

My feet to the flame as I fall on the blade 

For someone else's pain 

For someone else's pain 

Rivers of black ink flood 

The tapestry of flesh and blood 

Around my frame 

A living shrine 

Just for you if you'll be mine 

A golden band 

Upon your hand 

And leave this endless winter behind 

My sweet Josephine 

Won't you come and marry me 

I got every single kind of love 

You will ever need 

Dying here on bended knees 

Dying here on bended knees 

Dying here on bended knees 

My Josephine
