Goodnight Josephine - The Tragically Hip

I remember a girl on her cell phone, surrounded by her friends

Eyes flickering, she’s trying to smother a smile in her hands

Is it someone for us, someone more worry free

Someone who can say, «Leave the worrying about him to me, Josephine»

I remember you there in the last rays of light at diplomacy’s end

Eyes flickering, you’re crying, «But isn’t this when the crimes begin?»

When the people you want to don’t

And the people who do, you don’t believe do you, Josephine?

I remember you there at the table, surrounded by all the day’s plans

Eyes flickering, you’re trying to let a coffee cup warm your hands

Maybe we’re born lost, born to persevere

But, honey, I’d walk into your painting until I reappeared

As a speck of comet tail dust

A blue green northern light

Flickering just

In your eyes' deepest ravines

Goodnight, goodnight, Josephine

Goodnight, goodnight, Josephine

Goodnight, goodnight, Josephine

Goodnight, goodnight

Goodnight, goodnight

Goodnight, goodnight

Goodnight, goodnight

Goodnight, goodnight

Goodnight, goodnight

Goodnight, goodnight

Goodnight, goodnight, Josephine

Josephine
