Julia

Here's a song I sing for you

About a girl that I once knew

Julia

She lived in a great big house

With golden gates where servants bowed

For Julia

Unashamed I'd sit outside

And wait for hours

Hopin' that she'd climb down from her ivory towers

This beautiful girl as pretty as any flower

Had a hold on me

Upstairs in my lonely room

I would dream of bein' cool

With Julia

I lived in obsessive bliss

Carefully plannin' my first kiss

Of Julia

One day I was feeling awfully brave

Had asked her if she'd like to come out on a date

I just had to

She bent down and gently kissed my face

And said, "Oh, someday"

Oh my God

I love this girl

But no one ever said that love

Could burn

Waitin' by the phone for days

For a call that never came from Julia

But love is cruel and has no wings

But I still hear angels sing for my Julia

I remember being overwhelmed

By her prettiness

If only she would look my way

I might be in business

To tell the truth, she didn't even know

I existed

Julia

Summer took her pretty clothes

Winter came in gray and snow, oh Julia

And I found out she'd moved away

Her best friend said to the North country

Julia

Now all this happened many years ago

My friend

Regrettably, there is no happy end

Whoa, no

She was fourteen, I was only ten

Oh, my Julia
