William was said to be a bad boy
Met him behind the leaf of a door
William was the saddest boy
I ever saw

Talked to me
Talked to me
With his invisible tears

William was driving a dark blue car
At the moment
But I'm sure he will change
In a white one soon

Talk to me
Talk to me
Let us have a green one too

Promptly I took a fancy
For spending the rest of my days
And nights with that boy

Talk to me
Talk to me
Let us have a brandy or two

Well, there's the heads of those
Who believe, and believe
And believe in those of pure heart
And hand

William must have a chorus in his heart
And lilacs in his shoes
William is the sweetest boy I ever saw

Talk to me
Talk to me
Let us have a baby or two

Now that bad boy is away from me
But I don't mind that very much
'Cause when we meet again

Talk to me
Talk to me
Let us have another day
Or three
