Tabbed by:PJVillanueva
Half of what I say is meaningless
But I say it just to reach you, Julia.
Julia, Julia, oceanchild, calls me
So I sing this song of love, Julia
Julia, seashell eyes, windy smile, calls me
So I sing this song of love, Julia.
Her hair of floating sky is shimmering, glimmering
In the sun
Julia, Julia, morning moon, touch me
So I sing a song of love, Julia.
When I cannot speak my heart
I can only speak my mind, Julia.
Julia, sleeping sand, silent cloud, touch me
So I sing a song of love, Julia.
Hmmmmmmmmmhmmmhmmmmmm...............calls me
So I sing a song of love for Julia, Julia, Julia.
Use a capo on the second fret.
