Dear Billy Lyrics

Dear Billy lyrics

Dear Billy, how are you?

 I hope you are well

 The flowers are blooming

 The plants, I can't really tell

 I see by your letter

 You have no intent to come home

 So I'll take the kid and the house

 And make out on my own 

 

 Dear Billy, I'm trying

 To say what I feel

 But the feelings are locked up in pain

 I hope you're enjoying whatever it is

 You are doing in whoever's name

 The night it runs cold

 And it chills to the soul

 But you wouldn't know

 What's the use

 It's all one to me

 Go ahead and be free

 After all, you got nothing to lose

 

   I still go to school

   And the kid, she goes too

   We're learning to silence the fear

   That no one is near

   She calls me "Dear"

   And I wait for you

   What else can I do?

 

   No, nothing has changed

   It all stays the same

   We all remain ever-faithful

   And someone confused

   Except maybe you

   Who threw the harpoon

   Are you coming back soon?

 

 Dear Billy, please send

 My regards to your lady

 I wish her well

 And I hope that one day

 We will meet on the far side of hell

 Well the sun's got the moon

 And the writer his tune

 But I never had nothing 'cept you

 And on the day that you die

 I will sing lullabyes

 In the hopes that you got yours, too
