Billy Lyrics by Sally Seltmann

Hey Daydreamer

2013

[Verse 1]
He loved me, understood
He needed me, oh, it felt so good
But when he left my side for that motorcycle ride
I said to him while staring in his eyes
I said, "I want you to feel like a man
I need you to feel like a man, a man."
[Chorus 1]
Billy, Billy
Billy, oh Billy
[Verse 2]
You always followed through with your dangerous pursuits
With open arms I'd always say to you
I'd say, "I want you to feel like a man
I need you to feel like a man, a man."
[Verse 3]
Danger, devotion, freedom and fear
So closely entwined for so many years
[Chorus 2]
Billy, lying in the dark
Billy, death do us part
[Verse 4]
Why did I let you ride through the wilderness that night?
I'm haunted by the words I used to say
I'd say, "I want you to feel like a man
I need you to feel like a man, a man."
[Chorus 1]
Billy, Billy
Billy, oh Billy
Billy, Billy
