about

lyrics

I'm discontented with homes that are rented so I have invented my own.
Darling this place is a lover's oasis where life's weary 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 dreams.

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 have 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?
