south - to a warmer place

i'd be glad to stay right here with you

fact is

that is what i'd planned to

but from that fool look on your face

i think i'll head south to a warmer place

thought i'd given you the best of me

i'd be glad to share the rest of me

but there's a chill in your embrace

so

i'd better head south - to a warmer place

seems like yesterday we could kiss and build a fire

but now it's ten below

seems like yesterday nights were warm with love's desire

but now it feels like snow

i don't mind a cold day now and then

but this long deep freeze has done me in

and it's too late to plead your case

so i'm goin' south to a warmer place

i don't mind a cold day now and then

but this long deep freeze has done me in

and it's too late to plead your case

so i'd better go south - to a warmer place
