Baby, It's Cold Outside

(专辑： Stardust...The Great American Songbook: Volume III - 2004)

I really can't stay – Baby it's cold outside
I've got to go away – Baby it's cold outside
This evening has been – Been hoping that you'd drop in
So very nice – I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice
My mother will start to worry – Beautiful, what's your hurry
And my father will be pacing the floor – Just listen to the fireplace roar
Now really I'd better scurry – Sweetheart, what's your hurry
Well maybe just a half a drink more – Just put some record on while I pour

All the neighbors might think – But baby, it's bad out there
Say, what's in this drink – No cabs to be had out there
Oh I wish I knew how – Your eyes are like starlight now
To break this spell – I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell
I ought to say no, no, no, sir – Mind if I move a little closer
At least I'm gonna say that I tried – What's the sense in hurting my pride
I really can't stay – Baby don't hold out
Oh, but it's cold outside

I simply must go – Baby, it's cold outside
The answer is no – But baby, it's cold outside out there
Oh this welcome has been – So lucky that you dropped in
So nice and warm – Look out the window at that storm
My sister will be suspicious – God, your lips look so delicious
My brother will be there at the door – Waves upon a tropical shore
Oh my maiden aunt's mind is vicious – Oh baby you're so delicious
Well maybe just one little kiss more – Never such a blizzard before

Oh I've got to go home – You'll freeze out there
Say, lend me a comb – It's up to your knees out there
You've really been grand – I swell when you touch my hand
But don't you see – How can you do this thing to me
Oh, there's bound to be talk tomorrow – Making my lifelong sorrow
Well at least there will be plenty implied – If you caught pneumonia and died
But I really can't stay – Get over that old out
Baby it's cold outside

Hey, I gotta get out of here
Come on, baby
Come on what?
Just give me five minutes more
You're sure [?], don't you
Okay, okay, okay, okay
