Tea for Two
I'm discontented with homes that are rented
So I have invented my own
Darling, this place is a lovers oasis
Where life's weary taste is unknown
Far from the cry of the city
Where flowers pretty, caress the stream
Cozy to hide in, to live side by side in
Don't let it abide in my dream
Picture you upon my knee
Just tea for two
And two for tea
Just me for you
And you for me alone
Nobody near us to see us or hear us
No friends or relations
On weekend vacations
We won't have it known dear
That we own a telephone, dear
Day will break and you'll awake
And start to bake a sugar cake
For me to take for all the boys to see
We will raise a family
A boy for you
And a girl for me
Can't you see how happy we would be
end
So I have invented my own
Darling, this place is a lovers oasis
Where life's weary taste is unknown
Far from the cry of the city
Where flowers pretty, caress the stream
Cozy to hide in, to live side by side in
Don't let it abide in my dream
Picture you upon my knee
Just tea for two
And two for tea
Just me for you
And you for me alone
Nobody near us to see us or hear us
No friends or relations
On weekend vacations
We won't have it known dear
That we own a telephone, dear
Day will break and you'll awake
And start to bake a sugar cake
For me to take for all the boys to see
We will raise a family
A boy for you
And a girl for me
Can't you see how happy we would be
