Oh the sky
Looming over the sea
Ruling over the sand
Losing grip of the sun
Ah, what a heavy sky
What will we become?

Lately I
Lately I, lately I
Lately I, lately I
Lately I've been alone
Where do I, where do I
Where do I belong?

When we were young
We held to life lightly
I was a fool for ya
Melancholy Julia

We would go
Chasing after our lives
Chasing after our selves
Chasing every breath
Under a heavy sky
You were so pretty
When we were young
Living life lightly
I was a fool for ya
Melancholy Julia

Will I ever see you again?
Oh will I see you again?
Will we be peaceful, peaceful old timers?
Old friend

When we were young
We let life slip by lightly
I was a fool for ya
Melancholy Julia

I know I will see you again
And I know that I'll see you again
And we'll be peaceful, peaceful old timers
Old friend

When we were young
The sky was so heavy
When we were young
Life was a mystery
When we were young
Life was a mystery
When we were young
How hard I fell for ya
