julia

Ah now please Julia don't try
To get confident and star
Leave it like it is
You're lovely as you are
The only girl who can attract me an' engage
The one that I believe
I know you have no desire to upstage
A single thing they give you to read.

Julia don't tell
The chat shows and the press
Anythin' at all
Leave 'em all to guess
Please say nothin' off the cuff, I couldn't bear
Any reason not to like you
Just stay vulnerable and clear
Believable and sincere.

INSTRUMENTAL

Leave the sophistry to the others
At the moment you're my favourite.

Julia don't try
Gettin' confident and star
Leave it like it is
You're lovely as you are
The only girl who can attract me an' engage
The one that I believe
I know you have no desire to upstage
A single thing they give you to read.

Oh Julia don't try
Julia don't try
Julia don't star
