Let’s Stay In

The candles are lit, the snow is flying
The tree in Rockefeller Center has just begun to shine
The streets are full of shoppers
And there's Santa Claus at Saks
And the pony rides around the park
Are leaving deeper tracks...

But let's stay in
Turn off the lights
And just stay in
Gazing from the window at the lights below
Nothing urgent, no emergency
There's nowhere we need to go
Let's use the crystal glasses
When did we use them last?
A splash of sparkling water
Kentucky sour mash
No early reason to go out
None that I can see
Here's to you and me
Baby, let's stay in
Every Christmas gets a little crazier
Sometimes the holidays are tough
Reaching for deadlines and phone lines and bottom lines
Enough, enough, enough

Let's stay in
Put up a little tree
And just stay in
Build ourseleves a fire
Soaking up the glow I wonder what they're doing 30 floors below
No earthly reason to go out
None that I can see
Here's to you adn me Baby, let's stay in
