Waited around here forever today, Kept on hearing your car
I'd pull the drapes to see headlights pass the driveway
Wished the tail lights stopped, that it was you, you'd gone too far
Don't turn your head, stop your stares, or even dare to breathe
You might miss him
Around the bend or un-stuck in time again
Just like Billy Pilgrim
The time between us seems like only yesterday
And sometimes twenty years or more
I wonder what I could've done to make you stay
Knowing what you'd say, if I could hear you anymore
But I can't hear a thing above this silent scream
Too terrified to listen
Want to leave this world every now and then
Just like Billy Pilgrim
