I met two girls in boulder, we were standing in the cold
I said: There's only room for one
of you to live inside my home
But this, this is not my home

The first one took my mind away, the second took my name
Oh yeah, she writes me lovers every day
but I need her all the same
I need her all the same

But you're my leech
I hope you never leave me
You could live inside my heart
killing people just to eat, you're mine
And if you ever grow old
I will hold you in my hands
and tell you just how beautiful you are

When all the old folks went to bed, the gardener was spent
And the children playing quietly, I lost my only friend
And you held my head

The wind it whipped the trees around
it was snowing in the yard
So you ripped a piece right off your shirt
and tied it round my arm
And said: I'll keep you warm

Yeah you're my leech
I hope you never leave me
You could live inside my heart
killing people just to eat, you're mine
And if you ever grow old
I will hold you in my hands
and tell you just how beautiful you are

I hope you never leave me
You could live inside my heart
killing people just to eat, you're mine
And if you ever grow old
I will hold you in these hands
and tell you just how beautiful you are
