134 Juliette

40222463_sJuliette was a French exchange student who stayed with us one week in July. She really bonded well with our whole family and when it came time to gather in a parking lot with all the other exchange students for the cross country bus tour part of their trip, she just stood there with the tears streaming down her face. It was very moving. She wanted to be a photographer. She wanted to travel the world. She had a sweet and open spirit that touched us deeply. She’s probably got children her own now… Bon voyage Juliette!

Song #134   | 7/29/1989   |   CD: nope
[Tuning: EABEBE]

Our dearest Juliette
I hope this letter finds you well
The children send their greetings
And there is so much news to tell

Refrain:
Oh Juliette, Juliette of the seasons
Oh Juliette, Juliette, Juliette of the Breezes

I can see your tears of leaving
Rising to your eyes
Like clouds of monarch butterflies
Stranded in the rain…

Refrain:

I know you shall return to us
Like the Hudson river rises
To the pulling of the moon on tide
I know you will return

Refrain:

I can see you floating high above
The ocean like the Holy Grail
On the silver wings of aeroplanes
So small and frail

Refrain:

Beyond this tearful parting
Lie oh so many more
Awaiting you like packages
At every opened door

Refrain:

You must keep the courage in your eyes
To be just who you want to be
Please do not despair
If the other’s do not see

Refrain:

Our dearest Juliette
I hope this letter finds you well
The children send their greetings
And there is so much news to tell

Refrain:
