|
I'm discontented |
|
With homes that are rented |
|
So I have invented my own |
|
Darling this place is |
|
A lover's oasis |
|
Where life's weary chase |
|
Is unknown |
|
Far from the cry of the city |
|
Where flowers pretty |
|
Caress the streams |
|
Cozy to hide in |
|
To live side by side in |
|
Don't let it abide |
|
In my dreams |
|
Picture me upon your knee |
|
With tea for two and two for tea |
|
Me for you and you for me alone |
|
Nobody near us |
|
To see us or hear us |
|
No friends or relations |
|
On weekend vacations |
|
We won't have it known |
|
That we own a telephone |
|
Day will break and you'll awake |
|
And I will bake a sugar cake |
|
For you to take |
|
For all the boys to see |
|
We will raise a family |
|
A boy for you and a girl for me |
|
Can't you see |
|
How happy we would be? |
