She stops for coffee every morning Grabs the paper while she is yawning Wishing she was still in bed And though her cup is always full The 8 am express is leaving her without A choice to stay But where does she go And who really knows the girl deep inside The one she always tries to hide Julie, Julie don't you know You're riding on a carousel That's going nowhere round and round And round when will it end Don't ever be afraid To ride upon the biggest pony Open up the gates and let it carry you away She works so hard without a break But every now and then she dreams Of all the lovely places she could go She wonders if she will ever arrive And maybe then she can escape From all the loneliness she feels inside When will she learn The love that she yearns to find Deep inside Has always been there in her mind Julie Julie don't you know You're riding on a ferris wheel that's going nowhere Hold on tight so worried you might fall Don't ever be afraid To open up your eyes So you can see tomorrow Let it go and you will fly away Julie, Julie don't you know You're riding on a carousel That's going nowhere round and round And round when will it end Don't ever be afraid To open up your eyes So you can see tomorrow Let it go and you will fly away
