My Only Friend

Billie, you're a miracle and God knows, I need one
Sing me something terrible that even dawn may come
You and me, we don't believe in happy endings

Hey, Lady Day, can you save my life this time?
Can you cry so beautifully, you make my troubles rhyme?
Hey, Lady Day, can you save my life again?
My only love has gone away
Will you be my only friend?

Billie, you're a genius, enough to be a fool
A fool to gamble everything and never know the rules
Some of us can only live in songs of love and trouble
Some of us can only live in bubbles
