[Chorus]
If you lose me, you lose a good thing
That's one thing I know for sure
If you lose me, girl, you lose a good thing
That's one thing I know for sure

When you were sick, girl, I held your hand
When you were in trouble I tried to understand
To stay with you, I'd do anything I can
'Cause losing you was not part of the plan

Melbourne is a tropical London
American in a tropical London
Abandoned in a tropical London
Oh no, oh no

[Chorus]
If you lose me, you lose a good thing
That's one thing I know for sure
If you lose me, girl, you lose a good thing
That's one thing I know for sure

A souvenir reminds me of you
Every day I catch a glimpse of us two
I'm the one comin' to the rescue
That's why I'm confused, you withdrew
