[Verse 1]
Is it cold out tonight?
Take my sweater, it looks so right
Draped over your shoulder, I know it's getting colder as the wind picks up by the lake
It’s windy and it's raining
But neither of us are complaining
But who could complain?
We've got a bottle of champagne
It’s a risk I was glad to take
[Pre-Chorus]
And you can scooch in closer, I won't bite
Or you can stay where you are, I've never been one to fight
[Chorus]
And I've been dying not to ask you about your day
I've been dying to find a way
To fill a twin-sized mattress
It's too small for me, but it's plenty big for two
And I've been drinking with Marla Ann
I’m doing everything I can
To stop from dialing your number, to stop from waiting around for a word to come from you
It’s kind of depressing
To think when you're undressing
I’ll never cross your mind
It's kind of pathetic
To think you just won't get it
But there's still a place for you in this twin-sized mattress of mine
[Verse 2]
Is it warm here?
We don’t need no blankets
Do you mind if we take it
Just a little bit further
Why are you moving further and further and further away?
I'm just trying to hold you
And I already told you, that no matter what you do, and no matter what you say I'm always a pillow away
[Pre-Chorus]
And you can scooch in closer, I won't bite
Or you can stay where you are, I've never been one to fight
[Chorus]
And I've been dying not to ask you about your day
I've been dying to find a way
To fill a twin-sized mattress
It's too small for me, but it's plenty big for two
And I've been drinking with Marla Ann
I'm doing everything I can
To stop from dialing your number, to stop from waiting around for a word to come from you
It's kind of depressing
To think when you're undressing
I'll never cross your mind
It's kind of pathetic
To think you just won't get it
But there's still a place for you in this twin-sized mattress of mine
[Bridge]
I'm not singing in the shower anymore
I'm not whistling as I'm rinsing out my hair
I'm not dancing as I step in through the door
But it's not like you were around enough to care
[Chorus]
And I've been dying not to ask you about your day
I've been dying to find a way
To fill a twin-sized mattress
It's too small for me, but it's plenty big for two
(Plenty big for two)
And I've been drinking with Marla Ann
I'm doing everything I can
(Everything I can)
To stop from dialing your number, to stop from waiting around for a word to come from you
(For a word to come from you)
It's kind of depressing
(Depressing)
To think when you're undressing
(When you're undressing)
I'll never cross your mind
It's kind of pathetic
(It's kind of pathetic)
To think you just won't get it
(You just won't get it)
But there's still a place for you
(But there's still a place for you)
In this twin-sized mattress of mine
