Lyrics

I take my time and I like to move slow
Why should I worry when there's nowhere to go?
I like things simple and my friends are alright
I tell no stories and I sleep good at night
Things were different just before I met you
Now I worry wonderin' what to do
I was happy never playin' your game
Now you tell me that your name is William Wilson
William Wilson
I run up the staircase and there's nobody there
I play my records, then I haven't a care
Ears to the speaker and the heartache's forgot
Sometimes I'd forget you, other times I could not
I'd lie crying on the top of my bed
I was wonderin' 'bout the life you led
I would cry for you and call out your name
Now you say no one's to blame but William Wilson
William Wilson, William Wilson
William Wilson, let him run wild
William Wilson, let him run wild
I wanna talk to him, I wanna talk to him
Where is he now? Where is he now?
I wanna be like him, I wanna see him grin
Where is he now? Where is he now?
Where is he now? Where is he now?
I'd lie crying on the top of my bed
I was wonderin' 'bout the life you led
Now I understand we're both just the same
Now I tell you that my name is William Wilson
William Wilson, William Wilson
William Wilson, let him run wild
William Wilson, William Wilson
William Wilson, let him run wild
William Wilson, let him run wild
William Wilson, let him run wild
