Paula Cole - Billy Joe lyrics
[Paula Cole - Billy Joe lyrics]
The snowstorm blankets Cinncinnati
A black crow flies straight to my window
He looks me in the eye and tells me
The price for this will bring you sorrow
Billy Joe, I cast a shadow
From the darkness in my soul
Billy Joe, I lost control
The little girl who can’t say no
The bus pulls in another city
Wake up and don’t know where we are
Four months without a loving shoulder
At night I cannot fight the loving you start
Billy Joe, I cast a shadow
From the darkness in my soul
Billy Joe, I lost control
It was just a passing whimsical
Billy Joe, Billy Joe, Billy Joe
Billy Joe, Billy Joe, Billy Joe
The price for this will bring you sorrow
Billy Joe, I cast a shadow
From the darkness in my soul
Billy Joe, you think you know
Once burned twice sociological
Billy Joe, don’t be cold
My mistakes are no worse than yours
Billy Joe, this lonely road
Conjures up the inner ghosts
Billy Joe, I let you go
Spread my legs to ease this woe
Billy Joe, It was just a moment
Don’t you see that I am yours
Billy Joe, Billy Joe, Billy Joe
A black crow flies straight to my window
He looks me in the eye and tells me
The price for this will bring you sorrow
Billy Joe, I cast a shadow
From the darkness in my soul
Billy Joe, I lost control
The little girl who can’t say no
The bus pulls in another city
Wake up and don’t know where we are
Four months without a loving shoulder
At night I cannot fight the loving you start
Billy Joe, I cast a shadow
From the darkness in my soul
Billy Joe, I lost control
It was just a passing whimsical
Billy Joe, Billy Joe, Billy Joe
Billy Joe, Billy Joe, Billy Joe
The price for this will bring you sorrow
Billy Joe, I cast a shadow
From the darkness in my soul
Billy Joe, you think you know
Once burned twice sociological
Billy Joe, don’t be cold
My mistakes are no worse than yours
Billy Joe, this lonely road
Conjures up the inner ghosts
Billy Joe, I let you go
Spread my legs to ease this woe
Billy Joe, It was just a moment
Don’t you see that I am yours
Billy Joe, Billy Joe, Billy Joe
