Been hoping that you'd drop in
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 that fireplace roar
Now really I'd better scurry
Sweetheart, what's your hurry?
Well maybe just a half a drink more
Why don't you put some records 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
Your eyes are like starlight now
I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell
I ought to say no, no, no, sir
At least I'm gonna say that I tried
What's the sense in hurting my pride?
Oh, but it's cold outside
But baby, it's cold out there
Oh, this welcome has been
So lucky that you dropped in
Look out that window at that storm
My sister will be suspicious
Gosh, your lips look delicious
And my brother will be there at the door
Waves upon a tropical shore
Oh, my maiden aunt's mind is vicious
Ooo, baby you're so delicious
Well maybe just one little kiss more
Never such a blizzard before
You'll freeze to the bone out there
It's up to your knees out there
I thrill when you touch my hand
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
Hey, I gotta get out of here
Just give me five minutes more
You sure know how to wear a girl down, don't you?
