jessica simpson - baby, it's cold outside lyrics

(feat. nick lachey)
i really can't stay - baby it's cold outside
i've got to go away - baby it's cold outside
this evening has been - 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 the fireplace roar
so really i'd better scurry - beautiful, please don't hurry
well maybe just a half a drink more - put some music on while i pour

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 now
to break this spell - i'll take your hat, your hair looks swell
i ought to say no, no, no, sir - mind if i move a little 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 - baby, it's cold outside
the answer is no - ooh baby, it's cold outside
this welcome has been - i'm lucky that you dropped in
so nice and warm -- look out the window at that storm
my sister will be suspicious - man, your lips look so delicious
my brother will be there at the door - waves upon a tropical shore
my maiden aunt's mind is vicious - gosh your lips look delicious
well maybe just a half a drink more - never such a blizzard before

i've got to go home - oh, baby, you'll freeze out there
say, lend me your comb - it's up to your knees out there
you've really been grand - your eyes are like starlight now
but don't you see - how can you do this thing to me
there's bound to be talk tomorrow - making 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 out
baby it's cold outside
