Josie S House lyrics

I went out the door this morning
Walked along the concrete cracked and aged by elements that don`t discriminate and don`t give warning
And I walked alone

I went up to 16th St and looked into the windows of a restaurant
The guy standing next to me said it looked pretty good so I proceeded to give him a bunch of reasons
Why I didn`t think the place could make it and he said, I think too much
And I said, I know

I know my world is better than it seems and I try to be content with everything
But even knowing doesn`t stop your heart from feeling
That`s why I`m going where I`m going

Going down, going down, down to Josie`s house and that`s where I`ll play
Going down, going down, down to Josie`s house and that`s where I`ll stay

I decided I`d be happier if only I could feel the cool, wet grass beneath my feet
I had tried it while I thought of all the words to make this song complete

I went up to John St Park and there I met an old lady feeding ducks
The back of her hand had been bleeding and she didn`t even know it
She told me I`d be more handsome if I smiled
So we talked about the weather, she told me about her family and
She said I should meet her granddaughter, and I smiled

The smell of people in the street
I tasted life and life was sweet
The sound of colors in the air Of breathing mist and choral fare
Arriving anywhere in time, the feet are beating out a rhyme
I turned my body toward the south, I`m going down to Josie`s house
