From the recording Sweet Impossible
Lyrics
v1:
they'll be dancing in town tonight
we'll be thinking bout what we're missing
I don't mind so much that I'm in dutch again, but how
how did I get here?
v2:
from the first time I saw you scowl
I could tell that my days were numbered
it's one two three, the joke's on me
but I don't mind, as long as you let me
c:
josephine, my hard-hearted lover
what could turn you so cruel?
my poor heart runs circles to please you,
my sweet impossible jewel
v3:
where there's smoke I suppose there's fire
but I can't believe what they're saying
you jump for joy, you’ve got a whipping boy
to take the blame, when you're feeling lonely
c:
josephine, my hard-hearted lover
what could turn you so cruel?
my poor heart runs circles to please you,
my sweet impossible jewel
v4:
they’ll be dancing in town tonight...
c:
josephine, my hard-hearted lover
what could turn you so cruel?
my poor heart runs circles to please you,
my sweet impossible jewel
c:
josephine, my hard-hearted lover
what could turn you so cruel?
my poor heart runs circles to please you,
my sweet impossible jewel
