The Girl I Met

Bob Dylan sang 'Lay Lady Lay'
On a hazy, crazy, lazy day
It was '71 in Coogee Bay
We cried and gave our hearts away
You’re still mine, my only one
I’ll never leave our love undone
I’ll bring you breakfast when you’re down
Buy you a sexy dressing gown
I love you — can’t you tell
I love you when you’re sad as well
You look at me when you’re upset
And there you are — the girl I met
Mr. Perfect, no not me
I’m not the man I’d like to be
Too self-centered, that’s for sure
A bit uncouth and a whole lot more
But please m' darlin' lean on me
Life begins from here you’ll see
Middle-age is no regret
'Cause there you are — the girl I met
