Tea for Two
I'm discontented with homes that are rented so I have invented my own,
Darling this place is a lover's oasis
where lights where we chase 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 and to hear us, no friends or relations
On weekend vacations,
we won't have it known, dear, that we own a telephone, dear.
They will brake 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 will be.
Darling this place is a lover's oasis

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 and to hear us, no friends or relations

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 will be.
