Notes from Robyn on Patreon in 2020.
Here's another song I wrote for the movie JULIET, NAKED that didn't make it into the film. The song is yet another version of the eternal psychedelic mantra that I’ve been trying to write since I first picked up a guitar. I like to imagine it recorded at Sound Techniques in Chelsea, where Joe Boyd and John Wood recorded the early Pink Floyd and Incredible String Band. Indoor levitation? Why, it’s all the rage!

It was recorded at Magnetic Studios in Nashville, TN by John Little and features Ryan Brewer on Wurlitzer, harmonies and shaker.

Lyrics

In the summer
By a river
Underneath a tree

I kissed your shadow
Where the ?
? inside of you
And into of me

In the autumn
Leaves, I caught 'em
Falling through the air

Hang suspended
Where it ended
Everything was all around your hair
Like you were there

Who's gonna live?
Who doesn't yet?
Who can forgive?
While they regret?

'Cause I haven't yet
Ju-Juliet

In the winter
I'll be inta
Everything the same

Same old haircut
Same old beer gut
I can only play the fading game
Go back where I came

Who's gonna live?
Who doesn't yet?
Who can forgive?
While they regret?

'Cause I haven't yet
Ju-Juliet
Hmmmmm
Ju-Juliet
Hmmmmm
Ju-Juliet
Hmmmmm
