Come Back Josephine
Come Back Josephine: A Longing for Love and Reassurance
Lyrics
It's been five long days since I heard a word from You
Expressing the passage of time without communication from Josephine.
There's been five long days since I heard a word from You
Reiteration of the prolonged silence from Josephine.
It feels like eternity, I don't know what I'm gonna do
Conveying the emotional distress and uncertainty about the future.
I've been checking my phone, going like an egg-bound hen
Metaphorical comparison of anxiety to a hen unable to lay eggs.
I've been checking my phone, going like an egg-bound hen
Repetition of the metaphor, questioning the stability of the relationship.
Am I losing your love or will you call me again
Raising concerns about the possibility of losing Josephine's love.
Come Back Josephine
Direct plea for Josephine to return.
Don't make another scene
Advising against creating further conflict or tension.
I miss your huggin' and a kissin' and a cuddlin' and the sweet turtle dovin'
Expressing longing for physical affection and intimacy.
Come Back Josephine , please pick up the phone
Repetition of the plea for Josephine to answer the phone.
Somebody saw you last night hangin' out with another guy
Reports of someone witnessing Josephine with another man.
Somebody saw you last night hangin' out with another guy
Reiteration of the observation, seeking an explanation.
What's going on? C'mon and give me one more try.
Request for another chance and clarification on the situation.
Oh well I called your sister, your mama and your daddy too
Informing about contacting Josephine's family in search of her.
Oh well I called your sister, your mama and your daddy too
Repeating the attempt to reach out to her family for information.
They said you went down south, looking for that Blue Bayou.
Family's response indicating Josephine's journey south, possibly seeking solace.

It's been five long days since I heard a word from You
