Lyrics Emily Hackett – Josie

Text:

You’re reading Jane Austin, gettin’ lost in her ways
Of makin’ you lonely and wishing for fate
To come knocking on your door, wash up on your shore
Only thirteen and you’re imagining what it’s like to be married

All of the boys who go to your school
You think that they think that you aren’t that cool
But cool is a liar, I’m calling its bluff
You’re pretty and smart and that is enough

Josie hold on
Hold on to the feeling of feeling so young
Someone’s gonna come along
Just tell me you’ll hold out for someone you love
‘Cause once you’ve tasted his lips
You can’t act like you never been kissed

You like when they’re nice, ’cause it’s nice to be liked
But charm can wear off quick as day becomes night
Maybe daddy was right that all boys just want one thing
He’ll show ya in time if his words just mean nothing

So Josie hold on
Hold on to the feeling of feeling so young
Someone’s gonna come along
Just tell me you’ll hold out for someone you love
‘Cause once you’ve tasted his lips
You can’t act like you never been kissed

Save yourself the heartache
Don’t you know it’s worth the wait?
‘Cause no one can fix what he might break, oh

Josie hold on
Hold on to the feeling of feeling so young
Someone’s gonna come along

Just tell me you’ll hold out for someone you love
‘Cause once you’ve let down the gates
The rush will come in and flood the whole place
Once you’ve tasted his lips
You can’t act like you never been kissed

Oh, Josie
