Julie

Julie - Merril Bainbridge

She stops for coffee every morning grabs the paper

While she's yawning

Wishing she was still in bed

And though her cup is always full

The 8 a m express

Is leaving her without a choice to stay

But where does she go and who really knows

The girl deep inside

The one she always tries to hide

Julie Julie don't you know

You're riding on a carousel

That's going nowhere

'Round and 'round and 'round

When will it end

Don't ever be afraid to ride upon

The biggest pony

Open up the gates and let it carry you away

She works so hard without a break but every now and then

She dreams of all the lovely places she could go

She wonders if she will ever arrive and maybe then

She can escape from all the loneliness she feels inside

When will she learn that love that she yearns to find

Deep inside has always been there in her mind

Julie Julie

Don't you know you're riding on a ferris wheel

That's going nowhere

Hold on tight so worried you might fall

Don't ever be afraid to open up your eyes

So you can see tomorrow

Let it go and you will fly away
