about

Wrote this for my daughter a few weeks after she was born and first played it at one of the first Earth Day Celebrations in San Luis Obispo. Still a crowd favorite when we are playing a live show.

lyrics

Julia
by John Beccia

My eyes they stare into your face
Nothing in this world ever can replace
The happiness of love so real
Your fragileness inside my arms I feel

CHORUS Julia,
Expressions of growing love
Thinking of
My little girl, Julia

The tiny cries, the tender tears
They crumble down barriers built for years
My heart lies open deep and wide
You give me the strength that I need inside

REPEAT CHORUS twice

(Julia...........growing love
Thinking of..............Julia)-3 times


The years and lives have came and went
The generations that you represent
Your mother’s glow, your father’s smile
We all get reborn in a little child

REPEAT CHORUS 4 times

A brand new world
A precious pearl
My little girl, Julia
