Baby, It’s Cold Outside

[Carissa]:
I really can't stay

[Michael]:
But baby, it's cold outside

[Carissa]:
I've got to go away

[Michael]:
But baby, it's cold outside

[Carissa]:
This evening has been
[Michael]:
Been hoping that you'd drop in

[Carissa]:
So very nice
[Michael]:
I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice

[Carissa]:
My mother will start to worry
[Michael]:
Beautiful, what's your hurry?

[Carissa]:
My father will be pacing the floor
[Michael]:
Listen to the fireplace roar

[Carissa]:
So really I'd better scurry
[Michael]:
Beautiful, please don't hurry

[Carissa]:
But maybe just a half a drink more
[Michael]:
Put some records on while I pour

[Carissa]:
The neighbors might think
[Michael]:
Baby, it's bad out there

[Carissa]:
Say what's in this drink?
[Michael]:
No cabs to be had out there

[Carissa]:
I wish I knew how
[Michael]:
Your eyes are like starlight now

[Carissa]:
To break this spell
[Michael]:
I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell

[Carissa]:
I ought to say, no, no, no sir
[Michael]:
Mind if I move in closer?

[Carissa]:
At least I'm gonna say that I tried
[Michael]:
What's the sense in hurtin' my pride?

[Carissa]:
I really can't stay
[Michael]:
Oh baby don't hold out

[Carissa, then both]:
But baby, it's cold outside

[Carissa]:
I simply must go
[Michael]:
But baby, it's cold outside

[Carissa]:
The answer is no
[Michael]:
But baby, it's cold outside

[Carissa]:
Your welcome has been
[Michael]:
How lucky that you dropped in

[Carissa]:
So nice and warm
[Michael]:
Look out the window at this dawn

[Carissa]:
My sister will be suspicious
[Michael]:
Gosh, your lips look delicious

[Carissa]:
My brother will be there at the door
[Michael]:
Waves upon the tropical shore

[Carissa]:
My maiden aunts mind is vicious
[Michael]:
Gosh, your lips are delicious

[Carissa]:
But maybe just a cigarette more
[Michael]:
Never such a blizzard before

[Carissa]:
I've gotta get home
[Michael]:
But baby, you'd freeze out there

[Carissa]:
Say lend me a coat
[Michael]:
It's up to your knees out there

[Carissa]:
You've really been grand
[Michael]:
I thrill when you touch my hand

[Carissa]:
But don't you see?
[Michael]:
How can you do this thing to me?

[Carissa]:
There's bound to be talk tomorrow
[Michael]:
Think of my lifelong sorrow

[Carissa]:
At least there will be plenty implied
[Michael]:
If you got pneumonia and died

[Carissa]:
I really can't stay
[Michael]:
Get over that old out

[Michael & Carissa]:
Baby, it's cold
Baby, it's cold outside
