Don't Lose My Number

There came a night leaving fear behind, shadows are on the ground

And nobody knew where to find him, no evidence was found

I'm never coming back, I heard him cry, and I believe him

He never meant to do anything wrong

It's gonna get worse if he waits too long



chorus:

Now Billy, Billy don't you lose my number

'Cos you're not anywhere that I can find you

Oh now Billy, Billy don't you lose my number

'Cos you're not anywhere that I can find you, oh



Searchin' through the day and into the night

They wouldn't stop until they found him

They didn't know him and they didn't understand, nobody asked him why

"Get out of my way", I heard a shout, then a blinding light

All I could see was him running down the street

Out of the shadows and into the night



chorus



Don't give up, keep running, keep hiding

Now don't give up, oh Billy, if you know you're right

Don't give up, 'cos you know that I am on your side

Don't give up, oh Billy

You better, you better, you better run for your life



(Solo)



chorus



There came a night leaving fear behind, shadows are on the ground

Nobody knew where to find him, no evidence was found

I'm never coming back, I heard him cry, and I believe him

He never meant to do anything wrong

It's gonna get worse if he waits too long



chorus



Billy, Billy don't you lose my number

'Cos you're not anywhere that I can find you, oh Billy
