Josephine

Jon Auer

[Verse 1]

I got your message, Josephine
You weren't around for my reply
I saw the hall where the footprints are
And the train rolls by
Never knowin' where it's goin'
You were a modern woman, Josephine
Who never had the time to waste
For a game where they pull your chain
And the train rolls by
Never knowin' where it's goin'

[Chorus]

Still I wonder would you be that close to me?
Could you love a life that you will never see?
I guess I'll never know why
I guess I'll never know why
I guess I'll never know why
It wasn't meant to be

[Bridge]
They say that you went away 'cause you never had a soul to keep
It's fact, I can trace the tracks -- and when they laid you down to sleep...

[Verse 2]

I saved your chromosomes unknowingly
You weren't around for my surprise
Familiar sight on a restless night
And the train rolls by

But I finally got the message, Josephine
I'll never get to know you well
I invite you at the holy site
And the train rolls by
Never knowin' where it's goin'

[Chorus]

Still I wonder would you be that close to me?
Could you love a life that you will never see?
I guess I'll never know why
(Why you left, where you went, when you did?)
I guess I'll never know why
(How to live with the question?)
I guess I'll never know why
(What to do, who's to say, when it's true?)
I guess I'll never know why
(With no recollection?)
I guess I'll never know why
I guess I'll never know why
I guess I'll never know why
It wasn't meant to be
