lyrics

How long
am I gonna wait boy?
I’m not going home
alone.

Please tell me
that you need me a little bit,
want me a little bit more,
and when I run so fast to catch up with you,
holding on to your balloon,
don’t soar
so far ahead of me,
cause I want to be
a balloon
with you boy.

You can say
as much as you want to,
but you need me as much as I need you.
You talk
till you’re blue in the face
and you don’t make plans because you
always erase them.

Billy, I’m blue.
Your Billy’s blue, what will you do?
