Julie Laughs No More

Candlemass

Julie's on the run so far away from home

Mesmerized by promises and gold

Took the wrong left, turn,

it's just a one way street

Now she's all alone, out in the cold



Yes it's true we've heard it all before

But little Julie laughs no more



Julie's now on her way to grandma's house

A tiny little cottage in the woods

Hunting wolves are chasing

this delicious mouse

Where she went we never understood



Nothing really matters anymore

No Julie longer knocks on the door

A fallen princess bends her head in shame

In the end there's no one else to blame



And she's falling

Falling without reach

Julie's falling, lost in her dreams

Afraid to go, afraid to live

Into the emptiness what there's to believe



Julie's on the bean stalk way up in the clouds

Can't stop climbing, refuses to look down

The giant in his castle,

laughs gives wondrous wows

She's cast into the stew without a sound
