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?
My father will be pacing the floor
Listen to the fire place roar
So really I'd better scurry
Beautiful, please don't hurry
But maybe just a soda more
Put some records on while I pour
The neighbors might think
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 get home for dinner
Mind if I move in closer?
So it's time for me to cast you aside
What's the sense in hurting my pride?
But, baby, it's cold outside
How lucky that you dropped in
Look out the window at that storm
My sister will be suspicious
Gosh your lips look delicious
My brother will be there at the door
Waves upon a tropical shore
My maiden aunt's mind is vicious
Gosh your lips are delicious
But maybe just another dance more
Never such a blizzard before
Baby, you'll freeze out there
It's up to your knees out there
I thrill when I touch your hand
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 got pneumonia and died
