Billy knocked two teeth out
Got five stitches in the chin
I was dying inside, babe
I don't mind the pain
When I needed someone
Tell me who came along
I was hoping you'd come
Cause I really wanted you
Yes, I really wanted you
I was sleepless till dawn
With a heart breaking down
I've been lonely too long
And I really wanted you
Yes, I really wanted you...so long
Billy knocked two teeth out
Got five stitches in the chin
I was dying inside, babe
I don't mind the pain
Well, the moon starts to yawn
With every morning sun
Now the darkness is gone
Cause I really wanted you
Yes, I really wanted you for so long
