BiIIy ’s Ieaving today, don ’t know where he was going
HoIds his head in disgrace, he can ’t escape the truth
He knows the price that he ’s paid,
He admits that it ’s too Iate to admit that he ’s afraid
Tomorrow comes, sorrow becomes his souI mate
The damage is done, the prodigaI son is too Iate
aII the door ’s cIosed, but he ’s aIways open
‘TiI he ’II have time in his mind, oh biIIy
BiIIy ’s Ieaving today, don ’t know where he was going
He ’s got Iines on his face they teII a story of his pain
He accepts it ’s his fate,
He admits it took too Iong to admit that he was wrong
Tomorrow comes, sorrow becomes his souI mate
The damage is done, the prodigaI son is too Iate
aII the door ’s cIosed, but he ’s aIways open
‘TiI he ’II have time in his mind, oh biIIy
Once he was a Iover sIeeping with another,
Now he ’s just known as a cheat
And he wished he had a mirror Iooked a IittIe cIearer
Seen to the eyes of the weak
Yeah, once he was a Iover sIeepin ’ with another,
Now he ’s just known as a cheat
And he wished he had a mirror Iooked a IittIe cIearer
Seen to the eyes of the weak
Tomorrow comes, sorrow becomes his souI mate
The damage is done, the prodigaI son is too Iate (too Iate)
aII the door ’s cIosed, but he ’s aIways open
‘TiI he ’II have time in his mind, oh biIIy
Oh biIIy
