Billy lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Uh-huh

[Verse 1]
Since you've been gone now, honey
Life ain't nothin' but sad luck days
I begged on my knees now, sugar
You acted like you never knew my name
My friends saw you at the station
I guess you must have missed your train
Tell me, is it 'cause you love me, Billy
Or is it just because you love the pain?

[Chorus]
Billy, Billy
Ain't love hard to explain?
For a debutante you're a real hard woman, but I
Love you just the same

[Verse 2]
How come you're sad when I get happy?
Why do you laugh when I want to cry?
Tell me, why, when I say I need you
You turn around and you say goodbye
Why do you think that a heart's so fragile?
Can you tell me why love's so blind?
Just like a magnet, you pull me under
I can't resist you, we're two of a kind
[Chorus]
Billy, Billy
Ain't love hard to explain?
For a debutante you're a real hard woman, but I
Love you just the same
Billy, Billy
Can we be lovers and friends?
Life is like a movie but this ain't pretend
Billy, there's got to be a happy end

[Instrumental Break]
Never been enough just to give you my life, friend

[Chorus]
Billy, Billy
Ain't love hard to explain?
For a debutante you're a real hard woman, but I
Love you just the same

[Bridge]
I never said you had to walk on water or that I could ever stop the rain
Some times we break up just to make up, baby, and we don't care who's to blame
Hey, hey, hey

[Chorus]
Billy, Billy
Ain't love hard to explain?
For a debutante you're a real hard woman, but I
Love you just the same
Billy, Billy
Can we be lovers and friends?
Life is like a movie but this ain't pretend
Billy, there's got to be a happy end
[Outro]
Uh-huh-huh
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh-oh-oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Billy, Billy
Ain't love hard to explain?
Billy, Billy
I love you just the same
