She's got houseplants,
To keep her company.
I bought her a goldfish
She named it after me.
We look at old photographs,
Of lovers come and gone
Ask her if it makes her sad
She says "son you've got so much to learn."
JulietteThe love of life that you have kept
JulietteSmiling on her dying bed
JulietteGot a grace about you yet.
JulietteSmoking her last cigarette
Three is teatime,
She puts on patsy cline
Cuts the crusts of sandwhiches
Mentions how she don't mind dyin'
Tells stories about pearl and earl
Best friends that she once had
We do the dishes,
Then she says its time for bed
JulietteThe love of life that you have kept
JulietteSmiling on her dying bed
JulietteGot a grace about you yet.
JulietteSmoking her last cigarette
We ate ice cream
Last night before she slept
No plans for breakfast
Except to read the note she left
Gray and white skies
That day was a blur for me
She made me promise not to cry
So here's a drink 
I drink to thee.
JulietteThe love of life that you have kept
JulietteSmiling on her dying bed
JulietteGot a grace about you yet.
JulietteSmoking her last cigarette
