James Blunt - Billy (live) lyrics

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 Tomorrow comes. Sorrow becomes his soul mate The damage is done. The prodigal son is too late All doors closed but he's always open To hear the time in his mind Oh Billy 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 Tomorrow comes. Sorrow becomes his soul mate The damage is done. The prodigal son is too late All doors closed but he's always open To hear the time in his mind Oh Billy 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 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 Tomorrow comes. Sorrow becomes his soul mate The damage is done. The prodigal son is too late (too late) All doors closed but he's always open To relive time in his mind Oh Billy
