Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 chase is unknown
[Verse 2]
Far from the cry of the city
Where flowers pretty
Caress the streams
[Verse 3]
Cozy to hide in
To live side by side in
Don't let it abide in my dreams
[Verse 4]
Picture you upon my knee
Just tea for two and two for tea
Just me for you and you for me alone
[Verse 5]
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
[Verse 6]
Day will break, and you'll awake
And start to bake a sugar cake
For me to take for all the boys to see
[Verse 7]
We will raise a family
A boy for you, a girl for me
Can't you see how happy we would be?
[Verse 8]
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
[Verse 9]
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
[Verse 10]
Picture me upon your knee
Just tea for two and two for tea
Just me for you and you for me alone
[Verse 11]
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
[Verse 12]
Day will break, and I'll awake
And start to bake a sugar cake
For you to take for all the boys to see
[Verse 13]
We will raise a family
A boy for you, a girl for me
Can't you see how happy we would be?
