Josephina lyrics

Artist  : Van halen 
Song : Josephina
 
Josephina There's so much I want to know I've
known you for all of mine But not all of yours
You're not a stranger No, nothing could be
further I took back and I wonder What you were
like, long before Josephina If I asked you, would
you tell me? The fact from the fancy And the
dreams in between Tell me a story All about yours
truly Photographs from the past Imagine, the
mystery Did your head get lost in a daydream?
Cinderella, waiting for her charming Did you
break a heart, like little girls often do?
Pigtails and painted toes All dressed up in your
mother's clothes Can you shine the light? Please
can you shine some light? Can you shine the
light? Shine the light on a shadow Josephina
Would you lay down your defenses? So I can make
sense of Those colors fading to grey It's not
that you're hiding That's something, I'd never
imply Yesteryear may be gone Can't say the same
for today How else am I to know, that all the
white There was a mischievous look, behind the
smile It's hard to tell, when innocence comes and
goes I'm sure that there were times, life could
be so unkind When there wasn't always, a shoulder
to cry Can you shine the light? Please can you
shine some light? Can you shine the light? Shine
the light on a shadow
