Song Lyrics

Baby I enjoyed having you over this evening
I don't want you to go
It's, it's there anything I can say to make you stay

I really can't stay
Baby it's cold outside
I've got to go away
Darling it's cold outside
This evening has been
I 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?
My father will be pacing the floor
Listen to that fireplace roar
So really I'd better scurry (hey don't you worry)
Well maybe just a half a drink more
Why don't you put some records on while I pour

You see, 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 (to break the spell)
I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell

I ought to say no, no, no, sir (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
Baby it's cold outside

I simply must go
Babay it's cold outside
The answer is no
I said it's cold out there
This welcome has been
How lucky that you dropped in (so very nice)
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
Oh, your lips are delicious
Oh maybe just a cigarette more
Never such a blizzard before

I've got to go home (but baby, you'll freeze out there)
Say, lend me your coat
It's up to your knees out there
You've really been grand
I'm thrilled when you touch my hand (but don't you see)
Darling 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 old lie
Baby, baby it's cold outside
Baby, where could you be going
I mean, feel the wind blwoing
It is so cold out there
Baby it's cold outside
