Terence Trent D'arby - Billy Don't Fall lyrics

rate me

Billy was a young boy

Who's fate did decree

That he would like only other boys

So being with a boy came to him naturally

Billy was a green boy

His thoughts so naive

He wondered why he was so victimised

And his fear brought him close to me suddenly

But

Billy my friend

Don't fall in love with me

I'm not that kind of guy

But I'll stand by your side

If you need me to be

But

Billy my friend

Don't fall in love with me

Though it can't be wrong to be

To be what you are

Billy was a sick boy

His life fading to grey

He tried to grab for straws of family

But his loved ones turned young Billy away

Billy died a young man

His face to the wind

And of the things I regret the most

Was seeing how hate and fear killed a friend

But

Billy my friend

Don't fall in love with me

I'm not that kind of guy

But I'll stand by your side

If you need me to be

But

Billy my friend

Don't fall in love with me

Though it can't be wrong to be

To be what you are
