Sat there at the bar with him
Minutes turned to hours
A bottle of gin to numb his pain
My heart bursting every time
He says that he can't imagine living without her
Billy cry on my shoulder
It's the only way I can hold you
Billy why can't you see
That you are my so far away
Right next to me
Love of my life
He said he'll never
Oh never love again
He's now so dead inside
Stumbles into bed calls me his best friend
As he falls asleep
But I love him more than he knows
A long kept secret I can't let it show
Billy cry on my shoulder
It's the only way I can hold you
Billy why can't you see
That you are my so far away
Right next to me
Love of my life
Maybe tonight I should wake him
Tell him he's the reason
I hang around this small town
Burn, smoulder ,turn to ashes
Then rise again at the sight of him
Billy cry on my shoulder
It's the only way I can hold you
Billy why can't you see
That you are my so far away
Right next to me
Love of my life
Oh the love of my life
