Lyrics
Julija, wont you bury me,
down the hill from your first home.
I taught you the smallest things,
you taught me to live alone.
Julija, don't remember me,
as I was when I'd grown old.
Keep in youthful company,
keep your heart from growing cold.
When I was young, I lacked patience,
Now I'm older and I can't shake it.
You'd think I might want repayments,
for all the times that I have wasted.
Julija, do you not believe?
You played muse and helped my song.
Keep a copy by your bed,
play it soft when I am gone.
