lyrics

I don't go in for understandin' when you are away
Can't use my heart to think away the time
In my room I will await you and so soon I will relate you
And tie your finger right on up to mine

Sweet Josephine, you live in my dream
And sleep right by my side
I bid you well forever my belle
You'll always be my bride

Patience is a virtue that I practice all the time
I can't prepare my heart for joy sublime
In my room I will attend you and my heart it will defend you
Broken records keep in perfect time

Sweet Josephine, you live in my dream
And sleep right by my side
I bid you well forever my belle
You'll always be my bride

I'm not one for consolation, never second best
I'll practice til' I get you right my dear
So know that I will love you as my heart sings high above you
And takes away the doubt I have of fear

Sweet Josephine, you live in my dream
And sleep right by my side
I bid you well forever my belle
You'll always be my bride

I'm on the road with you I'm told
My partner never bought or sold
So hold my hand and join my band
While helping me grow old

Sweet Josephine, you live in my dream
And sleep right by my side
I bid you well forever my belle
You'll always be my bride

I bid you well forever my belle
You've always been my bride

about

The Hollows image

The Hollows Brooklyn, New York

A contradictory, harmonic melting pot that takes all its roots, twists them around, and produces something else; something new. With no frontman (or six frontmen), the result is a veritable junkyard of instruments and musical personalities, a carnival on wheels, a one-man band in six bodies that owns the stage with all the mobile, rhythmic ease of a seasoned railroad gang. ... more
