(Words by Van Halen). Josephina there's so much I want to know. I've known you for all of mine. But not all of yours. You're not a stranger. No nothing could be further. I look back and I wonder. What you were like long before. Josephina if I asked you would you tell me?. The fact from the fancy. And the dreams in between. Tell me a story. All about yours truly. Photographs from the past. Imagine the mystery. Didja get your head lost in a daydream?. Cinderella waiting for her charming. Did ya break a heart like little girls often do?. Pigtails and painted toes. All dressed up in your mother's clothes. Can you shine the light?. Ah can you shine the light?. Oh please can you shine some light?. Yeah can you shine the light?. Shine the light on a shadow. Josephina would you lay down your defenses?. So i can make sense of. Those colors fading to grey. It's not that you're hiding. Something I'd never imply. Yesteryear I may be gone. Can't say the same for today. Yeah Josephina!. (Guitar Solo). Ah Josephina!. How else am I to know that all the while. There was a mischievous look behind that smile?. It's hard to tell when innocence comes and goes. I'm sure that there were times life could be unkind. Without a shoulder to cry on. Can you shine the light?. Ah can you shine the light?. Yeah please can you shine some light?. Yeah can you shine the light?. Yeah can you shine the light?. Shine the light on a shadow. (Ah-ah-ah). (Ah-ah-ah). (Ah-ah-ah).
