Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sipping the cranberry, she bitter now
When I want the better things, she tear it down aye
She don’t like when I’m out, so things always go south
I call her, Julia
I call her, Julia
I call her, Julia
I call her, Julia
Vacays to Saint-Tropez, she didn't pay
I’m on a wave and she my tsunami
She stands in the way so I pump the brakes
Hit or miss when she in a mood
Still on my mind when I win or lose
But I can’t tell her that I know the truth
Julia, Julia please explain
All I ever do is I play your game
Julia, Julia’s just a name
For all the feelings I cant explain
She keep showing up when I’m around aye
Sipping the cranberry, she bitter now
When I want the better things , she tear it down aye
She don’t like when I’m out, so things always go south
I call her, Julia
I call her, Julia
I call her, Julia
I call her, Julia
(Ahhhhhhhh)
I remember we were close
If I lose you how will I cope
I don’t know
I remember we were close
If I lose you will how will I grow
late nights both you and I were low
Julia is everything I wish I didn’t know
She keep showing up when I’m around aye
Sipping the cranberry, she bitter now
When I want the better things , she tear it down aye
She don’t like when I’m out, so things always go south
I call her, Julia
I call her, Julia
I call her, Julia
I call her, Julia
