Billy Stay

歌詞

Billy won't you stay You've been up all night Talking 'bout flowers from '65 That print on that dress That you always liked We were young enough To go out and dance at night We'd cross the street And you'd hold my hand Same man now That you were back then Young kids, good for nothing But high hoping Broken, starving plastic ring Perfect for eloping Years went by fast You were so good to me Our children have children Billy, how could it be But 90 years is nothing To some kids like us So baby stick around And tell a story just because Billy stay a while Lately you've been slipping in and out Billy stay a child Tell me 'bout that girl you dreamed about Billy stay a while Tell me of the lovers who once were Billy stay a child Tell me bout' that girl and how you loved her Billy don't forget Won't you keep on trying I'll keep my ears open To keep from crying You're more handsome now Than you were back then And I'm the same girl you fell for When we were kids If love was enough Then you'd stay forever But I guess sometimes That the end is better 'Cause love turns to loss As the time goes by You don't know your own name But you know mine Billy stay a while Lately you've been slipping in and out Billy stay a child Tell me 'bout that girl you dreamed about Billy stay a while Tell of the lovers who once were Billy stay a child Tell me 'bout that girl and how you loved her And you went back home In your sleep last night And I heard you whisper "I love you goodbye" But maybe your Heaven's 1965 With my hair in your face On a long summer drive To me you'll never be The times you forgot But all of our good times And flowers you bought
