Lyrics to The Hummingbirds
Josephine
Josephine
Won't you please be strong for me?
I know it's been a while
And there's really no excuse
I just, I found it hard to watch your health decrease
Soon as I learned that you're one of my best friends
It was a, a quick hello and it was goodbye
Goodbye again
Josephine
Josephine
Will you know how much you meant to me?
I'm really trying hard to do the best I can
I want to right all these wrongs and be absolved of all my sins
So when the organ plays
And I'm lifeless in that bed
I can go at peace knowing
That I'll see you again
See you again
And I've thought about you since your final goodbye
It's just something I do to help pass the time
I don't mind, I don't mind, I don't mind, I don't mind
It's so much better than just sitting here waiting to die
I'm so sick of goodbyes
Little boy blue went and lost his way
He prayed all night for his soul to be saved
But when he finally woke he had a cross of his own
That he nailed to his back and he couldn't let go
You can do it once
You can do it twice
You can do it too much
Then you die inside
But there won't be a funeral, won't be a grave
Just a tiny little blurb on the very last page
It starts with a hit
It'll end with a bang
Next thing you know you're at the bottom of the bag
And you won't feel the pressure, you won't feel the pain
But your life will burn up like a Hollywood flame
I don't mind, I don't mind, I don't mind
It's so much better than just sitting here waiting to die
Josephine
Won't you please be strong for me?
I know it's been a while
And there's really no excuse
I just, I found it hard to watch your health decrease
Soon as I learned that you're one of my best friends
It was a, a quick hello and it was goodbye
Goodbye again

That I'll see you again
See you again
And I've thought about you since your final goodbye

It's so much better than just sitting here waiting to die

It's so much better than just sitting here waiting to die
