The for Two |
| Tea For Two |
| Tony Bennett |
| (Irving Caesar/Vincent Youmans) |
| 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 love side-by-side in. Don’t let it abide in my dreams |
| 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 |
| No friends or relations on weekend vacations |
| We won’t have it known, dear, that we have a telephone, dear |
| Day will break and you’ll awake and start to bake |
| A sugar cake for me to take for all the boys to see |
| We will raise a family, a boy for you, a girl for me |
| Oh, can’t you see how happy life would be? |
| You are revealing a plan so appealing I can’t help but falling for you |
| Darling, I planned it; |
| can’t you understand it is yours to command it, so do |
| All of your schemes I’m admiring, they’re worth desiring but can’t you see |
| I’d like to wait there for some future date dear; |
| It won’t be too late, dear, for me |
| 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 |
| No friends or relations on weekend vacations |
| We won’t have it known, dear, that we have a telephone, dear |
| Day will break and you’ll awake and start to bake |
| A sugar cake for me to take for all the boys to see |
| We will raise a family, a boy for you, a girl for me |
| Oh, can’t you see how happy life would be? |
