Sarah Vaughan Tea For Two
Picture you upon my knee Just tea for two And two for tea Just me for you And you for me...alone-
I'm discontented with homes that I've rented So I have invented my own. Darling, this place is lovely oasis Where life's weary taste is unknown Far from the crowded city Where flowers pretty caress the stream Cozy to hide in, to live side by side in, Don't let it apart in my dream-
Picture you upon my knee Just tea for two And two for tea Just me for you And you for me alone
Nobody near us to see us or hear us Mm, mm, mm, No friends or relations Mm, mm, mm, On weekend vacations Mm, mm, mm. We won't have it known, dear, That we own a telephone, dear...
Day will break and I'll wake And start to bake a sugar cake For you to take for all the boys to see
We'll raise a family
A boy for you And a girl for me
Can't you see how happy we would be..
