I was your first kiss Riverside Brisbane We were so timid and shy You were my best friend Kept each other dreaming Always talking bout leaving this little town And dancing in your living room Is one of my favourite places in the world What a thing to do, to fall in love with you Us against the world you and I And I tried to rescue you I tried and tried and tried and tried, but what more could I do? 16 years young I was holding you tight and You said her cancer had spread and couldn't be undone And I was standing in the backyard, the one we used to smoke in It was where we held her wake, after she died And dancing in your living room Is one of my favourite places in the world What a thing to do, to fall in love with you Us against the world you and I And I tried to rescue you I tried and tried and tried and tried, but what more could I do?
