Julia
Medeski Matin Wood and Scofield/Medeski Martin & Wood Lyrics

Half of what I say is meaningless
I express myself in a way that may not always make sense or be meaningful. However, I do it just to connect with you, Julia.

But I say it just to reach you, Julia.
Although my words may not be significant, I still use them to communicate with you, Julia.

Julia, Julia, ocean child, calls me
Julia, with your free spirit and love for the sea, you beckon to me and I answer your call.

So I sing a song of love, Julia
I use music as my language of love, and I dedicate this song to you, Julia.

Julia, seashell eyes, windy smile, calls me
Your eyes are as beautiful and intricate as seashells, and your smile is as breezy and serene as the wind. You entice me, Julia.

Her hair of floating sky is shimmering, glimmering
Your hair, Julia, reminds me of the sky floating above, and it shines and sparkles in the sun's rays.

Julia, Julia, morning moon, touch me
With your mystical aura and dreamy presence, Julia, you touch my heart and soul like the morning moon illuminating the stillness of the night.

When I cannot sing my heart
Sometimes I am unable to express my emotions through music,

I can only speak my mind, Julia.
so I resort to speaking honestly and openly with you, Julia.

Julia, sleeping sand, silent cloud, touch me
Even in your quiet moments, Julia, you have a profound impact on me. You are as peaceful and soothing as sleeping sand and silent clouds.

Hum hum hum hum, calls me
There is an unexplained but undeniable force drawing me to you, Julia,

So I sing a song of love, Julia, Julia, Julia.
so I continue to use music as my channel of love, repeating your name three times as an expression of reverence and affection, Julia.
