[Verse 1]
I battled through the shopping mall
My head was down and I was on the go
When a girl faking her friendliness
Held out her hand and said, "Now do you know
You can save the planet with your credit card and payments once a week?"
She touched my arm and called me gorgeous
Now I'm sponsoring a school in Mozambique
[Chorus]
Look what happens when I go out on my own
Without you beside me
All my wisdom is suspended
I shouldn't be left unattended
Look what happens when you're not holding my hand
And you're not there to guide me through
I get blurry on thе lines and I'm a scaredy-cat sometimеs
But I'm a lioness with you
[Verse 2]
I drove to Victor Harbor with a six string to take strumming in the sand
I woke up on my blanket when I heard a woman talking to a man
They invited me to join them
Though I though it was to play them my guitar
And the song that they requested was a French one
It was called, "Ménage à trois"
[Chorus]
Look what happens when I go out on my own
Without you beside me
All my wisdom is suspended
I shouldn't be left unattended
Look what happens when you're not holding my hand
You're not there to guide me through
I get blurry on the lines and I'm a scaredy-cat sometimes
But I'm a lioness with you
[Verse 3]
I was sitting at the airport bar, drinking through a four hour delay
And you know when you've had a few
You try and talk but words get in the way
I got myself together when the flight was called
But stumbled at the gate
And they banded me 'til the six AM
I fell asleep and didn't wake until eight
[Chorus]
Look what happens when I go out on my own
Without you beside me
All my wisdom is suspended
I shouldn't be left unattended
Look what happens when you're not holding my hand
You're not there to guide me through
I get blurry on the lines and I'm a scaredy-cat sometimes
But I'm a lioness with you
[Chorus]
Look what happens when I go out on my own
Without you beside me
All my wisdom is suspended
I shouldn't be left unattended
Look what happens when you're not holding my hand
You're not there to guide me through
I get blurry on the lines and I'm a scaredy-cat sometimes
But I'm a lioness with you
