SELF-TITLED DEBUT LYRICS
all songs written by Julia Frodahl


VIVIAN
You were springtime, you were even June. Did those mermaids sing for you?  Time for pills and time for tea. Fix your face please. Let yourself go do you dare to be an inspiration? One more chance to save yourself what will it be, Vivian? Time for pills and time for tea. Fix your face please.  One more chance to save yourself what will it be? Inspiration? Inspiration? Inspiration? Or that vacation? Do they still sing? You were springtime. Do they still sing after this? Do they sing? Do they sing?

YOU ARE BRIGHT
Read my books and letters. Pass away the time and toss another coin into the well. Far from the city. You’re like a star, remote, a dream. And you are bright. When I come out to see the light, I hope to find you basking in it. Cause you are bright. You are bright. Not much to write from here. But the morning glories make me miss you. Far from the city.

CITY LIGHTS
She always said the lights are pretty high up on a hill. A place where she could rest. A place where she could rest.  And you will know when you find it She wore her hope so well. High up on a hill. A place to leave behind. Oh lover of leaving, you swear one day you’ll find a place where you can stay. A place where you can stay. A place where you can stay...

FEAR & YEARN
You don’t wanna learn. You fear, you yearn. We all have our doubts. We live, without. Go along now. Go along. Go along now. Go along....Go along...

DREAM OF THINGS
Quiet nights and sweet guitars. And little room for words. Can we drive out to the farthest places and dream of things to come? And dream of things. It’s cold outside. December nights. I don’t wann be alone by myself, I wann be alone with someone else. Can we drive out to the farthest places, and make the road our friend? And make the road our friend.I

LULLABIES & GOODBYES
You barely grasp the things you hold. The day she left you was long ago. You hold your heart. Lullabies and good-byes. Lullabies and good-byes... You’re still a boy. Apple cheeks and all. Counting the stars at night, and crying when they fall. You barely grasp...  Lullabies and good-byes, ;ullabies and good-byes...
