Lyrics Rod Stewart – Julia

Here’s a song I sing for you
About a girl that I once knew
Julia
She lived in a great big house

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

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

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

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

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

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
