Julia?

Julia, I've waited
a long, long time
I sang my heart out
in a thousand rhymes
But darling I'll wait
darling I'm waiting for you

Your parents don't think
I'll make it far
Cause you deserve diamonds
and I just play the guitar
Don't say I'm too late
as long as it takes I'll be true

And when I take you for a walk
I just hear your daddy talk
"Don't give him a reason to hold on"
Now he's blocking all my calls
He don't understand at all

If only Julia could pick up her phone tonight
I wouldn't have to play my songs from outside
Let me up on your balcony, then we'll spend
The night from dusk 'til dawn

Oh Julia I'm holding on

You raised my hopes up
when I felt small
But I stumble and break
running into a wall
It might be too late
but still I'm waiting for you

I text you "Can we run away?"
I can hear your mother say
"Stuck in love is better late than now"
And she threw all my letters out
Oh, can I be close somehow?

If only Julia could pick up her phone tonight
I wouldn't have to play my songs from outside
Let me up on your balcony, then we'll spend
The night from dusk 'til dawn

I'll hold you close and keep you warm

Julia I'm holding on, holding on
Don't know if I can carry on, carry on
Romeo & Julia that's what we are
Tell me how could it get so far

Julia won't you pick up your phone tonight
I need the sound of your voice, a lifeline

If only Julia could pick up her phone tonight
I wouldn't have to play my songs from outside
Let me up on your balcony, then we'll spend
The night from dusk 'til dawn

I'll hold you close and keep you warm
I'll hold you tight the whole night

I just need you by my side
