So very nice - I'll hold your hands, they're like ice My mother will to worry - Beautiful, what's your hurry And father will be pacing the floor - Listen to the roar So really I'd better scurry - Beautiful, please hurry Well maybe just a half a drink more - Put records on while I pour
The neighbors might think - Baby, bad out there Say, what's in this drink - No to be had out there I wish I knew how - Your eyes are starlight now To break the spell - take your hat, your hair looks swell I ought to say no, no, no, sir - if I move in closer At least I'm gonna say I tried - What's the sense in hurting my pride? I really can't stay - Baby hold out Ahh, but cold outside
I must go - But, baby, it's cold outside The answer is no - but, baby, it's cold This welcome has - I'm lucky that you dropped in So nice and warm - Look out the window at that My sister will be suspicious - Gosh, lips look delicious My brother will be there at the door - Waves upon a shore My maiden aunt's mind is vicious - Oh, lips are delicious maybe just a cigarette more - Never such a blizzard before
I've got to go home - Baby, you'll out there Say, lend me your coat - It's up to knees out there You've really been grand - I thrill when you touch my But don't you see - How can you do this to me? There's to be talk tomorrow - Think of my life long sorrow At least there will be plenty implied - If you caught pneumonia and I really stay - Get over that hold out Ahh, but it's outside
