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
[Verse 2]
Unashamed I'd sit outside and wait for hours
Hoping that she'd climb down from her ivory towers
This beautiful girl as pretty as any flower had a hold on me
[Chorus]
Upstairs in my lonely room I would dream of being cool
With Julia
I lived in obsessive bliss carefully planning my first kiss
Off Julia
[Verse 3]
One day I was feeling awfully brave and asked her
If she'd like to come on a date, I just had to
She bent down and gently kissed my face and said oh someday
Oh my god how I loved this girl
But no one ever said that love could burn
[Chorus]
Waiting 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
[Verse 4]
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
[Chorus]
Summer took her pretty clothes, winter came in grey and snow
Oh Julia
And I found out she'd moved away, her best friend said to the north country
Julia
[Verse 5]
Now all this happened many years ago my friend
Regrettably there is no happy end, oh no
She was 14, I was only 10, oh my Julia
[Verse 1] 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 [Verse 2] Unashamed I'd sit outside and wait for hours Hoping that she'd climb down from her ivory towers This beautiful girl as pretty as any flower had a hold on me [Chorus] Upstairs in my lonely room I would dream of being cool With Julia I lived in obsessive bliss carefully planning my first kiss Off Julia [Verse 3] One day I was feeling awfully brave and asked her If she'd like to come on a date, I just had to She bent down and gently kissed my face and said oh someday Oh my god how I loved this girl But no one ever said that love could burn [Chorus] Waiting 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 [Verse 4] 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 [Chorus] Summer took her pretty clothes, winter came in grey and snow Oh Julia And I found out she'd moved away, her best friend said to the north country Julia [Verse 5] Now all this happened many years ago my friend Regrettably there is no happy end, oh no She was 14, I was only 10, oh my Julia Explain Request ×
