Billie Joe has written 8 original songs for the upcoming play 'These Paper Bullets' which premiers this weekend, March 14th, at the Yale Repertory Theatre. This video was published yesterday featuring one of Billie's songs "Follow You Around" being performed by the actors in the play. Billie is there listening to the performance.



The song made me immediately think of The Wonders from the Tom Hanks movie 'That Thing You Do'. Others pointed out some similarities to The Beatles track Please Please Me.

"These Paper Bullets" will run from March 14th - April 5th. For ticket information visit the Yale Rep website.

Lyrics

I wanna make your dreams come true
If it's the last thing that I do

Don't be afraid, I want to follow you around
Cause it's not a secret I'm in love (I'm in love)

There is no need to run and hide
Cause you are safe here by my side

Don't be afraid, I want to follow you around
Cause it's not a secret I love you (I'm in love)

I want to make you mine
And give it one more try
I'll be right by your side
To know you're not alone

I want to make your dreams come true
If it's the last thing that I do

Don't be afraid, I want to follow you around
Cause it's not a secret I love you (I'm in love)

I love you
I love you
I love you
