Josephine Lyrics

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

Well I do not have a picture
I've never heard your voice
In 1963 I did not have a choice
Well I was only sixteen
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 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 under stand or sympathize
But where I was that moment
Was not a good place to be
I could not protect my self, nevermind a baby

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

Well I do not have a picture
I've never heard your voice
In 1963 I did not have a choice

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

Well I do not have a picture  
  I've never heard your voice  
  In 1963 I did not  have a choice   
  Well I was only sixteen  
  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 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 under stand or sympathize   
  But where I was that moment  
  Was not a good place to  be 
 I  could not protect my self, nevermind a baby    
 
Hey Josephine, I loved you since the day you rolled inside 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 that you rolled inside me 
 Hey Josephine, I  hope you have the heart...
 
  Well I do not have a picture  
  I've never heard your voice  
  In 1963 I did not have a choice

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
