lyrics

Julia, what has become of your sea blue smile and your eyes of the sun?
Julia, I knew you once in a faded dream, what have you become?

You're a messenger, sentenced to the street
You washed up on a tidal wave but you never found your feet
I'm lost for words, but my words got lost
In a town not too far from here with the morning frost
Where I met a blind man, he looked at me and said,
"Where will I sleep tonight? Oh, where is my bed?"

Julia, what has become of your sea blue smile and your eyes of the sun?
Julia, I knew you once in a faded dream, what have you become?

Do you know the water boy, do you know the clown?
Do you know happiness, or do you now frown?
Because I've found the water boy and I know the clown
I may not know happiness but I sure as hell don't frown
Take me to riverside, show me the war
I've been missing you, Julia, the girl I never saw

Julia, what has become of your sea blue smile and your eyes of the sun?
Julia, I knew you once in a faded dream, what have you become?

Have you been a prisoner, have you seen the stars?
I drew them on the sky for you and all that you are
Are you still beautiful, Are you still sane?
Where is that smile if yours I remember in vein?
Is this the end of it, will I see you again?
My blue eyed Julia, my lover, my friend
My blue eyed Julia, my lover, my friend
