Julia
Yuki Saito (斉藤由貴) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

頬つえをつくと
サイドミラーに のぞく私 夢見てる
なだらかな坂 ゆるいカーブ
タメ息がでちゃう
さり気ない顔 何気ないふり
カーオーディオ 指さし方も
「ボサノバは好き?」
「嫌いじゃないわね」
だけど この歌手
好きじゃないのホントは...
誰にも縛られずJulia
自分勝手気ままに生きた人
そんなに世の中はJulia
うまく行くもんじゃないわね
山頂につくと 二人車を降りて
ひとつ深呼吸
音が消えたら なんだか微妙な
ニュアンス 嫌だわ
言いたげな顔 気付かないふり
遥か残る 雪を見ていた
「いい天気だね?」
「そうね 今日はとても」
だけど 無意味ね
その気なんかないのに
心ここにあらずJulia
白い帽子が飛ばされて行く
そんなに世の中はJulia
うまく行くもんじゃないわね

繰り返し歌うのJulia
晴れた日に行き詰まってゆく




そんなに世の中はJulia
うまく行くもんじゃないわね

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Yuki Saito's song Julia are about a couple taking a drive together and enjoying the scenery while listening to music. The woman in the song is dreaming about herself as she gazes into the side mirror, and she seems to be effortlessly enjoying the view, which includes a gentle slope and easy curves. However, she is holding back her emotions and disguising them with a casual expression. Their conversation is light-hearted, with the man asking the woman if she likes bossa nova, and she replies that she doesn't dislike it, but rather hates the singer of the song that they are listening to. She then contradicts herself and admits that she dislikes the singer.


The woman is drawn to Julia, a woman who lives life on her terms and without restrictions. Julia is described as someone who lives according to her own will and is self-centered, but the world is not always kind to her. The couple stops their car at the summit, and while the woman enjoys seeing the snow-capped mountains in the distance, the man seems oblivious to her feelings. The woman then seems to be holding back her desire to speak up and express her true feelings. She begins to sing the repetitive chorus of the song, which states that life is not always fair and that things do not always go smoothly.
