When I first met you I didn't realise
Things could go sideways, I wanna make it right
When you hold my hand and shield me from the rain
I feel no pain when I've got you with me

I'd open my window and see you before noon
And we'd go waltzing Matilda round my room
You held me so tight in a grip like vice
I don't think twice when I know you're near me

First she set me free
Then she made me feel at home
Now she won't let me be
She won't leave me alone

But I don't mind that she wants me to stay
Cause I know that feeling and it drives me insane
And I don't even need it
Although I tried to make her mine she made me hers
So I walked away but without her I was worse
I wish I could see her all of the time
But I just could not ever make that girl mine

First she set me free
Then she made me feel at home
Now she won't let me be
She won't leave me alone

When I first met you I didn't realise
Sweet leaf I love you but sweet loaf am I

She wants me to stay
And I know that feeling cause it drives me insane
And I don't even need it
