Billy lyrics

Was it yesterday

When me and Billy played in the snow

Outside the house

On the street we used to call our home?

Was it long ago

When he said his first hello

And I held him tightly

In my tiny arms?

And now I look back

And I wish I was a young girl

With my long pigtails

And sitting in the backyard

With my brother that I love

Has it been so long?

Has it been so long?

Has it been so long

Since we held each other strong

And we cried all through the night

When we lost our little puppy to the Lord?

Billy was so small

And then he grew so tall

All the years between

They seem so far away

And now I look back

And I wish I was a young girl

With my long pigtails

And sitting in the backyard

With my brother that I love

Has it been so long?

Has it been so long?

Then I went away

He was 12 years old that day

I remember salty tears

Trickled down his sad and freckled face

I was 17 

And the whole world was a dream

Maybe then I should've stopped

And looked ahead 

And now I look back

And I wish I was a young girl

With my long pigtails

And sitting in the backyard

With my brother that I love

Has it been so long?

Has it been so long?

And now I look back

And I wish I was a young girl

(Wish I was a young girl)

With my long pigtails

And sitting in the backyard

(Sitting in the backyard)

With my brother that I love

Has it been so long?

(Been so long)

Has it been so long?

(Has it been so long?)

And now I look back

And I wish I was a young girl

(Wish I was a young girl)

With my long pigtails

And sitting in the backyard

(Sitting in the backyard)

With my brother that I love

Has it been so long?

(Has it been so long?)

Has it been so long?

(Has it been so long?)

And now I look back

And I wish I was a young girl

(Wish I was a young girl)

With my long pigtails

And sitting in the backyard

(Sitting in the backyard)

With my brother that I love

Has it been so long?

(Has it been so long?)

Has it been so long?
