Song I wrote to honor a dear friend Julie Simon (1953-1984) who left us too soon. She was the inspiration for wanting to write music in the first place. I miss you, Jules.
Lyrics
Isn’t this where my whole life started, isn’t this where I began
Seeing your face there for the first time
Waiting to see you again.
Julie Ann, have you got room in your plan
For one whose life is in your hands, Julie Ann.
Isn’t this why I started the music, finding a song in me
Hearing your voice there for the first time, I heard the melody.
Look back over my shoulder
I can almost see you standing there
Much too soon the song was over
But I still hear it playing – everywhere.
Isn’t this where my memory started, meeting the girl I knew
Seeing you smile there for the first time, I will remember you.
