July on Film lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hula Girls
Under palm trees
Forget the ones
In Tennessee
Iced lemonade
Though I don’t like sour things
Forbidden fruit
Is always bittersweet

[Pre-Chorus]
I shouldn’t have to come to
Convince you to come
Your words are just sounds un-
‘til something is done

[Chorus]
In my dreams, Alexander
You call me Billy Holiday
Shooting 35
Smoking cigarettes
Just lately there is someone I am trying to forget

[Verse]
Your silhouette
Tracing dark gray
Lips on my neck
Neck on my name
Untie my hair
We’re setting ground
I can’t bring myself to say I’m in love out loud
[Pre-Chorus]
Remember when you told me
How playing it safe
Would come around to hold me
From leaving this state[?]

[Chorus]
In my dreams, Alexander
You call me Billy Holiday
Shooting 35
Smoking cigarettes
Just lately there is someone I am trying to forget

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
In my dreams, Alexander
You call me Billy Holiday
Shooting 35
Smoking cigarettes
Just lately there is someone I am trying to forget
