Billy Stay - Live

Billy, won't you stay? You've been up all night

Talkin' 'bout flowers from '65

The print on that dress that you always liked

When 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 nothin' but high hopin'

Broke and starvin', plastic ring perfect for elopin'

The years went by fast, you were so good to me

Our children have children, Billy, how could it be?

But ninety years is nothin' to some kids like us

So, baby, stick around and tell a story just because

Billy, stay a while

Lately, you've been slippin' in and out

Billy, stay a child

Tell mе 'bout that girl you dreamed about

Billy, stay a while

Tеll me of the lovers who once were

Billy, stay a child

Tell me 'bout that girl and how you loved her[Verse 4]

Billy, don't forget, won't you keep on tryin'?

I'll keep my ears open to keep from cryin'

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 slippin' in and out

And, 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

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 your hair in my face on a warm summer drive

To me, you'll never be the times you forgot

But all of our good times and the flowers you bought[Spoken]

Thank you guys so much
