I'll Always Be by Your Side

I Love You Bill - Jez Reece

I was woke in the middle of the night

Looked out the window jumped up with a fright

Right out there in the middle of the yard

Was my girl Sally serenading from the heart

Giving it her all with her steel guitar

Opened the window let the music flow

Hadn't the heart to say Sally go

Intentions were good and I understood

In this land where Menfolk are scarce as hollow wood

I listened for a while while her feelings flowed

Dog started barking beckoned her to slow

Kept right on in a serious way

Bill it's time for me to have my say

Put on my jeans and wandered down

Ma came out in her dressing gown

What's all the ruckus it's late you know

Just then a rooster crowed

Went up to her put my arms around

Said what a night what a sweet sweet sound

She stopped playing and looked at me straight

Then her love song went on to relate

I love you Bill I always will

I had to admit I loved Sally dear

Had been stalling for all these years

How much can a girlie take before

She cries down and permanently breaks

She'd stayed faithful this I know

And now she was putting on her last stand show

Determination in her voice showed

To her wishes I now bowed

Sally I said there comes a time and that time is now

I feel mighty humbled

Would you do me the honour

She blinked and said with glee

So you finally want to marry me

After all these years I've lived in sorrow

You Bill will have to wait until tomorrow

'Cause I I love you Bill

I always will

I I love you Bill

I always will

I I love you Bill

I always will
