Kathy, I love this kid
Runs so much faster than I ever did
Crossed the globe and started as an intern
At an indie label in a downturn
Folded over the corner of the page
Lit the spark and stormed the stage
Left your friends in Fortitude Valley
Joined a band and nailed the finale

My heart was in arrhythmia when I saw you
Standing silhouetted on Maple Avenue
I felt trouble brewing, I felt the planet shake
But I went along anyway

In the hazy orange light
Underneath the viaduct that night
I had to change my tune to spare my blushes
If this were a movie and this was the start
Would it be a cliché part?
Cause I am far too old for foolish crushes

And my heart was in arrhythmia when I saw you
Standing silhouetted on Maple Avenue
I felt trouble brewing, I felt the planet shake
But I went along anyway

So come and visit for the weekend
Brutalism by the river with a new friend
No secrets, no shame
Falling in love is a dangerous game to play
