Lyrics
“Julia”
You were always there for me, Julia.
I was so afraid to fall in love.
I thought you’d wait for me,
Is it too late for me now?
Have you given up?How it must have hurt you, Julia.
Waitin’ for your love to be returned.
I never knew how.
What can I do now that I
Have finally learned?I never thought that love could hurt me,
Now I tremble at the thought of losing you.
And all the perfect words desert me now,
Just in case it matters,
I love you.May I have this dance with you, Julia?
Won’t you let me hold you one more time?
The music is over,
But I’ll hold you closer this time, Julia.
Julia.
