I heard the news today

Billy's gone away

Left us all for good

No one understood

You only had to say

I would understand

You only had to say

Whatever come what may



I was feeling low

You called and you were too

We'd meet Saturday

It happened on Wednesday

You only had to say

It's sad

I would understand

I don't want you brave

A truce we made today



If you're feeling sad

On me you can depend

You only have to say
