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.
