lyrics

Billy
I know you feel like you're losing touch with the world around you
Put your milkshake down, let's drive around

Billy
I've never seen you smile as much as you smiled the day that the snow came
The snow fell on your face and you always used to hate this place
But now I know you don't

What can you say about Billy?
It's Billy, every time I look up
I don't want to let you down

Billy
What would your parents say if they found us down at the arcade?
Billy, keep your t-shirt on and laugh along

To my jokes
I'll sneak over Saturday and teach you to play the guitar
Every time you look at me it's easy to see you don't care about the chords

What can you say about Billy?
It's Billy, every time I look up
I don't want to let you down

He caught the snowflakes on his tongue
I had to run

And Billy told me once
He told me twice
Do this and you carry it with you for the rest of your life
He told me once
He told me twice
Do this and you carry it with you for the rest of your life
For the rest of your life
For the rest of your life
