Paroles:
Let the phone ring
Let's go back to sleep
Let the world spin outside our door,
You're the only one that I wanna see
Tell your boss you're sick,
Hurry, get back in, I'm getting cold
Get over here and warm my hands up, boy,
It's you they love to hold
And stop thinking about what your sister said
And stop worry'n about it,
Yes, the cat's already been fed
Come on darlin', let's go back to bed
(Chorus)
Put the phone machine on hold
Leave the dishes in the sink
Do not answer the door
It's you that I adore, (for you I'll be a poor man's wife)
I'm gonna give you some more
We'll sit on the front porch,
The sun can warm my feet
You can drink your coffee with sugar and cream,
I'll drink my decaf herbal tea
Pretend we're perfect strangers
And that we never met
My, you remind me of a man I used to sleep with,
That's a face I'd never forget
You can be Henry Miller and I'll be Anais Nin,
Except this time it'll be even better,
We'll stay together in the end
Come on darlin', let's go back to bed
(Chorus
Let's go back to sleep
Let the world spin outside our door,
You're the only one that I wanna see
Tell your boss you're sick,
Hurry, get back in, I'm getting cold
Get over here and warm my hands up, boy,
It's you they love to hold
And stop thinking about what your sister said
And stop worry'n about it,
Yes, the cat's already been fed
Come on darlin', let's go back to bed
(Chorus)
Put the phone machine on hold
Leave the dishes in the sink
Do not answer the door
It's you that I adore, (for you I'll be a poor man's wife)
I'm gonna give you some more
We'll sit on the front porch,
The sun can warm my feet
You can drink your coffee with sugar and cream,
I'll drink my decaf herbal tea
Pretend we're perfect strangers
And that we never met
My, you remind me of a man I used to sleep with,
That's a face I'd never forget
You can be Henry Miller and I'll be Anais Nin,
Except this time it'll be even better,
We'll stay together in the end
Come on darlin', let's go back to bed
(Chorus
