Dear Billy

Dear Billy I am sorry that things ended, like they did Never thought that I'd reminisce Hey, Billy Told myself that I wouldn't miss you, but I do So, here I am telling you this Wish I could take back all the arguments and the way we disagreed Wish I could give you all the compliments, before I watched you leave 'Cause now I'm sat here by your grave Wishing you were someone that I could've saved Wish I could've run to you and pulled you away You'll be the first thing on my mind 'til my dying day And that day's getting closer They're telling me to run faster, but I kinda wanna stay And say, "I'm sorry, Billy" Dear Billy I should tell you that your dad left It's for the best Home feels better without him there The whole town cried the day you died But they don't know the truth It's just plain lies about why (about why) And they don't know about the upside Wish I could take back all the arguments and the way we disagreed Wish I could give you all the compliments, before I watched you leave 'Cause now I'm sat here by your grave Wishing you were someone that I could've saved Wish I could've run to you and pulled you away (pulled you away) You'll be the first thing on my mind 'til my dying day And that day's getting closer They're telling me to run faster, but I kinda wanna stay And say, "I'm sorry, Billy" "I'm sorry, Billy" Wish I could go back and relive the times when you're screaming at my face Because it's better than all these lies and watching you drift away 'Cause now I'm sat here, and I'm saying this You're someone that I miss Dear Billy I am sorry that things ended, like they did Never thought that I'd reminisce
