Julie

(Eddie Setser)



Julie was the life of my soul

Came along and showed me all a woman has to show

She never made me promises about loving me always

She just made me happy while she stayed.



Time and changes changed her mind one day

She went to find her world in some strange city far away

Now I stand here lookin' through that Appalachian rain

Turning Julie over in my mind again.



Some she took from me some she left behind

And I get by the best I can

Still I smile and thank to Lord oh that Julie took the time

To stop and love a boy into a man.



All in all she sure was good for me

What I feel inside is more than just a memory

And if I had a gift to give to any man I know

He'd have a girl like Julie sleeping softly in his soul...
