Billy

(album: Crimson/Red - 2013)

Where d'ya find that trumpet Billy, I said
Where d'ya find that trumpet Bill, he said
"I found it on some wasteland buried in the snow"
How d'ya learn to play it William, I said
How d'ya learn to play it Bill, he said
"Sat down on a doorstep I practiced long and slow"

I let my feelings show
I let my feelings show
Trumpets come
Trumpets go
It's amazing what gets
Left out in the snow

I let my feelings show
I let my feelings show
Trumpets come
Trumpets go
It's amazing what gets
Left out in the snow

I'm in love with Susan, Billy, I said
I'm in love with Susan, Bill
Her smile is like a fairground
I'm basking in the glow
I've got no gift for music William
Got no gift for music Bill, he said:
"Sing a song of sixpence... Steady as you go"

Let your feelings show
Let your feelings show
Trumpets come
Trumpets go
It's amazing what gets
Left out in the snow

Let your feelings show
Let your feelings show
Trumpets come
Trumpets go
It's amazing what gets
Left out in the snow

Tell me all your secrets, Billy, I said
Tell me all your secrets Bill
Lead me to your doorstep
There's so much I don't know
I'm in love with Susan, Billy I said
I'm in love with Susan, Bill
Her smile is like a fairground
I'm basking in the glow

(Let your feelings show, let your feelings show)

Let your feelings show
Let your feelings show
Trumpets come
Trumpets go
It's amazing what gets
Left out in the snow

Let your feelings show
Let your feelings show
Trumpets come
Trumpets go
It's amazing what gets
Left out in the snow

Tell me all your secrets, Billy, I said
Tell me all your secrets Bill
Lead me to your doorstep
There's so much I don't know
I'm in love with Susan, Billy I said
I'm in love with Susan, Bill
Her smile is like a fairground
I'm basking In the glow
