Julietta

She lights a cigarette her name is Julieta

She's sleeping on my sofa and I don't really know her

I saw her down the cafe not looking very happy

Asked her what's going down

She said she's a stranger in this town

She said I come from outer space another town another place Different world she calls home Travelling alone trying to forget all the reasons why she left There is salt in her skin

From the Channel crossing over Calais to Dover

Boat sailed over restless sea

Trucks and trailers in a shipping container

Someone sold her one way ticket down a one way street

She is a silhouette in my window Julieta
