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's life's weary chase

Is unknown

Far from the cry of the city

Where flowers pretty

Caress the streams

Cozy to hide in

To live side by side in

Don't let it abide in my dreams

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, a girl for me

Oh, can't you see

How happy we would be?

You are revealing

A scene so appealing

I can't help but feeling for you

I know you planned it

And I understand it

It's yours to command it, please do

All that you say I'm admiring

It's worth desiring

But can't you see

I'd like to wait, dear

For some future date, dear

It won't be too late, dear

For me

Picture me upon your 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 I'll awake

And start to bake

A sugar cake

For you to take

For all the boys to see

We will raise a family

A boy for you, a girl for me

Can't you see

How happy we would be?
