Lyrics

Billy Bones

(Holly)

(Holly) (love)

(Holly)

(Holly)

(Holly) (love)

(Holly)

Each day I live

I have so much to say

But words don't flow as good as they should

Each day I live

Is such a game to play

I'll take my time and give it a chance today

I don't know why

I seem to fall to these things

But love can't live then just disappear

I'll try to speak

There is so much to say

But words don't flow as good as they should

(Holly)

(Holly) (love)

(Holly)
