Cocktails for Two
In some secluded rendezvous
That overlooks the avenue
With someone sharing a delightful chat of this and that
And cocktails for two (cocktails for two)
As we enjoy a cigarette
To some exquisite chansonnette
Two hands are sure to slyly meet beneath a serviette
With cocktails for two (cocktails for two)
My head will go reeling
But my heart will be obedient
With intoxicating kisses
For the principal ingredient
Most any afternoon at five (most any afternoon at five)
We'll be so glad we're both alive (we'll be so glad we're both alive)
Then maybe fortune will complete her plan
That all began with cocktails for two
Two (cocktails for two)
That overlooks the avenue
With someone sharing a delightful chat of this and that
And cocktails for two (cocktails for two)
As we enjoy a cigarette
To some exquisite chansonnette
Two hands are sure to slyly meet beneath a serviette
With cocktails for two (cocktails for two)
My head will go reeling
But my heart will be obedient
With intoxicating kisses
For the principal ingredient
Most any afternoon at five (most any afternoon at five)
We'll be so glad we're both alive (we'll be so glad we're both alive)
Then maybe fortune will complete her plan
That all began with cocktails for two
Two (cocktails for two)
