Billy Don't Fall Lyrics - Singles - Terence Trent Darby

Billy was a young boy 

Who's fate did decree 

That he would like only other boys 

So being with a boy came to him naturally 

Billy was a green boy 

His thoughts so naive 

He wondered why he was so victimised 

And his fear brought him close to me suddenly 

But 

Billy my friend 

Don't fall in love with me 

I'm not that kind of guy 

But I'll stand by your side 

If you need me to be 

But 

Billy my friend 

Don't fall in love with me 

Though it can't be wrong to be 

To be what you are 

Billy was a sick boy 

His life fading to grey 

He tried to grab for straws of family 

But his loved ones turned young Billy away 

Billy died a young man 

His face to the wind 

And of the things I regret the most 

Was seeing how hate and fear killed a friend 

But 

Billy my friend 

Don't fall in love with me 

I'm not that kind of guy 

But I'll stand by your side 

If you need me to be 

But 

Billy my friend 

Don't fall in love with me 

Though it can't be wrong to be 

To be what you are
