Juliet
Freak Mummy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Look at the human river
Just in front of you.
The world’s running
and the missing ones
always make you think
‘bout her.
Remember how lovely
she used to appear,
waltzing with you
during the morning tea,
fifty years loving you, where are you?
Do you hear me, Juliet?
in the mirror we’ve already shared
seven years without you.
Do you hear me, Juliet?
And you wonder why,
sometimes you can see
a strange shadow,
trying to make you feel
that you’ve been the one
through these years.
Do you hear me, Juliet?
in the mirror we’ve already shared
seven years without you.
Do you hear me, Juliet?
Do you talk to me
when I sleep?
Do you sing for me
in my dreams?

Look at the human river
Observe the bustling crowd of people
Just in front of you.
Right before your eyes.
The world’s running
The world is busy and moving quickly
and the missing ones
And those who are no longer with us
always make you think
Always make you contemplate
‘bout her.
About the person you miss.
Remember how lovely
Recall how beautiful
she used to appear,
She used to present herself,
waltzing with you
Gracefully dancing with you
during the morning tea,
While savoring the morning tea,
fifty years loving you, where are you?
Fifty years of loving you, where are you now?
Do you hear me, Juliet?
Can you hear me, Juliet?
in the mirror we’ve already shared
In the reflections we have shared
seven years without you.
Seven years have passed since you have been gone.
Do you hear me, Juliet?
Can you hear me, Juliet?
And you wonder why,
And you question why
sometimes you can see
Occasionally, you can perceive
a strange shadow,
An unfamiliar silhouette,
trying to make you feel
Attempting to make you experience
that you’ve been the one
That you have been the person
through these years.
Throughout these years.
Do you hear me, Juliet?
Can you hear me, Juliet?
in the mirror we’ve already shared
In the reflections we have shared
seven years without you.
Seven years have passed since you have been gone.
Do you hear me, Juliet?
Can you hear me, Juliet?
Do you talk to me
Do you communicate with me
when I sleep?
While I am asleep?
Do you sing for me
Do you serenade me
in my dreams?
In my dreams?
