Baby It's Cold Outside

I really can't stay - but baby it's cold outside

I've got to go away - but baby it's cold outside

This evening has been - Been hoping that you'd drop in

So very nice - I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice

My mother will start to worry - Beautiful words you're humming

And father will be pacing the floor - Listen to the roarfireplace

So really I'd better scurry - Beautiful, please don't hurry

Well, maybe just a half a drink more - Put some records on while I pour

The neighbours might think - But baby it's bad out there

Say, what's in this drink? - No cabs to be had out there

I wish I knew how - Your eyes are like starlight now

To break the spell - I'll take your hat, your hairs looks swell

I ought to say no, no, no sir - Mind if I move in closer?

At least I'm gonna say that I tried - What's the sense of hurting my pride?

I really can't stay - Oh baby don't hold out

Ah but it's cold outside - Baby it's cold outside

I simply must go - But baby it's cold outside

The answer is no -But baby it's cold outside

The welcome has been - How lucky that you dropped in

So nice and warm - Look out that window at that storm

My sister will be suspicious - God your lips look delicious

My brother will be there at the door - Waves upon a tropical shore

My maiden aunt's mind is vicious - Gosh your lips are delicious

Well, maybe just a cigarette more -Never such a blizzard before

I got to get home - But baby you'd freeze out there

Say, lend me a coat - It's up to your knees out there

You've really been grand - I'm thrilled when you touch my hand

Why don't you see - How can you do this thing to me?

There's bound to be talk tomorrow - Think of my lifelong sorrow

At least there will be plenty implied - If you caught pneumonia and died

I really can't stay - Get over that hold-out

Ah but it's cold outside

And it's cold outside?
