Julie says
John I'm getting nowhere
I wrote this letter
Hope to get to some place soon
I want to get up
When I wake up
But when I get up
I fall down
Julie wake up
Julie tell the story
You wrote the letter
Said you were gonna get there someday
Gonna walk in the sun
And the wind and the rain
Never walk back again
Now you fall down
You're falling down
You fall down
You fall down
Julie say something
Julie say you're sorry
You're gonna get better
You better not leave me here anyway
I want to get up
When you wake up
When I get up
I fall down
When I'm falling down
I fall down
I broke myself
I fall
I fall down
I'm falling down
I'll fall down
When you fall down
When I'm falling down
Is when you're falling down
When you fall down
I'll fall down
I fall down
John I'm getting nowhere
I wrote this letter
Hope to get to some place soon
I want to get up
When I wake up
But when I get up
I fall down
Julie wake up
Julie tell the story
You wrote the letter
Said you were gonna get there someday
Gonna walk in the sun
And the wind and the rain
Never walk back again
Now you fall down
You're falling down
You fall down
You fall down
Julie say something
Julie say you're sorry
You're gonna get better
You better not leave me here anyway
I want to get up
When you wake up
When I get up
I fall down
When I'm falling down
I fall down
I broke myself
I fall
I fall down
I'm falling down
I'll fall down
When you fall down
When I'm falling down
Is when you're falling down
When you fall down
I'll fall down
I fall down

It's a song about struggle. A couple who wants to improve, either become the best they can be, or escape from the bad place they are in. But as they both strive for this, as a couple, they both fall short of their goal, they just can't get there. Either they have something that keeps holding them back (illness, drugs, society, etc.) or they have they their sights unreasonably high and continue to fall short of their expectations.
