Dear Billy |
| 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 |
