[Verse 1] Billy's leaving today Don't know where he's going Holds his head in disgrace He can't escape the truth He knows the price that he's paid He admits that it's too late to admit that he's afraid [Chorus] Tomorrow comes Sorrow becomes his soul mate The damage is done The prodigal son is too late Old doors are closed but he's always open To relive time in his mind Oh Billy [Verse 2] Billy's leaving today Don't know where he's going He's got lines on his face They tell the story of his pain He accepts it's his fate He admits it took too long to admit that he was wrong [Chorus] [Bridge] Once he was a lover sleeping with another Now he's just known as a cheat And he wish he'd had a mirror Looked a little clearer Seen into the eyes of the weak (2x) [Chorus]
