Dion — Josie

[Verse 1] Just got a letter from Josie this morning Had to read between the lines She was sitting all alone, gazing through 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 With old-fashioned clothes and tape-mended glasses [Chorus] Josie, Josie, hold on for me Comin' from California to be with you, Josie The world holds no love for a driftin' boy like me Travellin' fast on God's wind to be with you, Josie [Verse 2] Remember the garden you once walked To put your troubled mind at ease Well, it is gone now to buildings, they even took the Cypress tree The cinders take the place of fallen leaves We'll spend time out there talkin' You know I'd love to fix you tea I could tell you of people, all the places I got to see Josie, hold on please [Chorus] Josie, Josie, hold on for me Comin' from California to be with you, Josie The world holds no love for a driftin' boy like me Travellin' fast on God's wind to be with you, Josie [Outro] Josie, Josie, hold on for me Comin' from California to be with you Josie
