Yeah, yeah, yeah   Since you've been gone now, honey   Life ain't nothing but sad luck days   I begged on my knees now, sugar   You acted like you never knew my name      My friends saw you at the station   I guess you must have missed your train      Tell me is it 'cause you love me, Billy   Or is it just because you love the pain?      Billy, Billy   Ain't love hard to explain?   For a debutante you're a real hard woman   But I love you just the same      How come you're sad when I get happy?   Why do you laugh when I want to cry?   Tell me why when I say I need you   You turn around and you say goodbye?      Why do you think that a heart's so fragile?   Can you tell me why love's so blind?   Just like a magnet you pull me under   I can't resist you, we're two of a kind      Billy, Billy   Ain't love hard to explain?   For a debutante you're a real hard woman   But I love you just the same      Billy, Billy   Can we be lovers and friends?   Life is like a movie but this ain't pretend   There really have to be a happy end   [Incomprehensible]      Billy, Billy   Ain't love hard to explain?   For a debutante you're a real hard woman   But I love you just the same      I never said you had to walk on water   Or that I could ever stop the rain   Sometimes we break up just to make up, baby   And we don't care who's to blame      Billy, Billy   Ain't love hard to explain?   For a debutante you're a real hard woman   But I love you just the same      Billy, Billy   Can we be lovers and friends?   Life is like a movie but this ain't pretend   There really have to be a happy end      Yeah, yeah, yeah   Yeah, yeah, yeah      Billy, Billy   Ain't love hard to explain?   Billy, Billy   I love you just the same
