baby it's cold outside

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?, father will be pacing the floor - listen to the fireplace roar, so really i'd better scurry - beautiful, please don't hurry, maybe just a half a drink more - put some records on while i pour, the neighbors might think - baby, it's bad out there, say, what's in this drink? - no cabs to be had out there, 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 - mind if i move in 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, ah, but it's cold outside, i've got to get home - oh, baby, you'll freeze out there, say, lend me your coat - it's up to your knees out there, you've really been grand - thrill when you touch my hand, why don't you see - how can you do this thing to me?, there's bound to be talk tomorrow - think of my life long sorrow, at least there will be plenty implied - if you caught pneumonia and died, i really can't stay - get over that hold out, ah, but it's cold outside, oh, baby, it's cold outside, oh, baby, it's cold outside
