Julie, The Flowers Of The Forest, The Crags Of Sti Lyrics

(The Levellers/Trad. arr. by the Levellers/H. Mackay)

Julie was a lonely girl
She said she was born that way
She always was that way
She leeft home at age sixteen
Got a job that's what you're supposed to do
What else is there to do
She fell in love and settled down
In a counch place on the edge of town

CHORUS
She'd feel alone in a crowded room
Cry when she heard a happy tune

It would be nice to holiday
Till they took her job away
Just took her life away
And doing nothing isn't fun
When you've nothing from which to run
Nowehere left to run
She'd visit the social every day
Every time be turned away

CHORUS

A hundred stairs to her new room
Over glas and blackened spoons
Children grow old so soon
Past the kids who gather there
Pain masked by narcotic stares
But no one really cares
Her dreams were cut up and bled dry
A million voices in her cry

CHORUS

Julie waits, her world is her window
And Julie hates jsut what she doesn't know
And Julie hates the world below
But Julie loves
She loves too much to know
