Julia - Rick Wakeman

Run — heart in my mouth

Run so hard that it beats

And repeats in my head like a gun

East — west, north and south

No direction to go

But I know that the ending’s begun

I know I made a mistake coming here again

But I had to remind myself of where and

When

We threw off our chains

Hid ourselves in ourselves from the world

And its organised hell

Now — nothing remains

Barely a trace of the place where I knew

Him well

Down

Down he said get on the floor

And stay well away from the door

Or someone will see us for sure

And I

Loved him like no-one before

Princess madonna and whore

Kept coming back for more

Run — goodness know where

I’m a poor refugee

And I might as well be on the moon

Still why should I care?

I had it all in one grand afternoon

Down

Down he said get on the floor

And stay well away from the door

Or someone will see us for sure

And I

Loved him like no-one before

Princess madonna and whore

Kept coming back for more

Feeling the death and decay

Didn’t expect him to stay

Stay with me Julia stay

But I

Only remember that day

As ruler of all I survey

And nothing can take that away
