Willy - Joni Mitchell

Willy is my child, he is my father

I would be his lady all my life

He says he’d love to live with me

But for an ancient injury

That has not healed

He said I feel once again

Like I gave my heart too soon

He stood there looking through the lace

At the face on the conquered moon

And counting all the cars up the hill

And the stars on my window sill

There are still more reasons why

I love him

Willy is my joy, he is my sorrow

Now he wants to run away and hide

He says our love cannot be real

He cannot hear the chapel’s pealing silver bells

But you know its hard to tell

When you’re in the spell if it’s wrong or if it’s real

But you’re bound to lose

If you let the blues get you scared to feel

And I feel like I’m just being born

Like a shiny light breaking in a storm

There are so many reasons why I love him
