Juliana

In these poorly drawn lines
The words aren’t mine
It’s the heart that writes

Even with you away
Your image’s here to stay
But it just deepens the loneliness

This letter’s happier
It’ll do what I couldn’t do
Which is to be in your hands

I don’t want a reply
You don’t leave those you love
And that’s why I sing this way

Juliana, Juliana
I promise next week
I’ll come to pick you up

Juliana, Juliana
I promise next week
I’ll come to pick you up

The longing’s so intense
And wherever I go, I sense
I’m living in thoughts of you

I smell the grass
When I kiss your picture
It makes me want to cry

Juliana, so sweet
You’ll always be the first
To have my affection

Even though you’re far away
I don’t forget you for a second
Why did I have to say goodbye?

Juliana, Juliana
I promise next week
I’ll come to pick you up

Juliana, Juliana
I promise next week
I’ll come to pick you up
