Josie (English Version)

(álbum: Josie - 1975)

Just got a letter from Josie this morning
Had to read between the lines
She was sitting all alone, gazing through the wooden blinds
She folded up her hands and she was crying
Wearing the same old mournful smile
For an old love, God knows where
All the children, they laugh at the old woman as she passes
In old-fashioned clothes and tape-mended glasses

Josie, Josie, hold on for me
Coming from California to be with you, Josie
The world holds no love for a drifting boy like me
Travelling fast on God's wind to be with you, Josie

Remember the garden you once walked
To put your troubled mind at ease
Well, it is gone now to a building, they even took the Cypress tree
The cinders take the place of fallen leaves
We'll spend time out there talking
You know, and I'll to fix you tea
I can tell you of the people and the places I got to see
Josie, Josie, hold on please

Josie, Josie, hold on for me
Coming from California to be with you, Josie
The world holds no love for a drifting boy like me
Travelling fast on God's wind to be with you, Josie
Oh, oh, Josie, Josie hold on for me
Coming from California to be with you Josie
The world holds no love for a drifting boy like me
Travelling fast on God's wind to be with you, Josie

Mmm
