I climbed the hill to Julie's house
The place I used to live
I climbed the steps and tried the door
And let myself in
The kitchen clock I used to watch
Had stopped at five to five
A photograph I'd never seen
A car came up the drive
I stood outside the kitchen door
And when she turned her head
I said that I was back to stay
She laughed at what I said
She said that I'd grow old believing
That I was what mattered most
That I'd uncover real feelings
As I got close
I climbed the hill to Julie's house
The place I used to live
I climbed the steps and tried the door
And let myself in
She said that I'd grow old believing
That I was what mattered most
That I'd uncover real feelings
As I got close
