Let the phone ring,
let's go back to sleep
Let the world spin outside our door,
you're the only one that I wanna see
Tell your boss you're sick, hurry,
get back in I'm getting cold
Get over here and warm my hands up,
boy, it's you they love to hold
And stop thinking about
what your sister said
And Stop worrying about it,
yes, the cat's already been fed
Come on darlin', let's go back to bed
Put the phone machine on hold
Leave the dishes in the sink
Do not answer the door
It's you that I adore
I'm gonna give you some more
We'll sit on the front porch,
the sun can warm my feet
You can drink your coffee
with sugar and cream
I'll drink my decaf herbal tea
Pretend we're perfect strangers
and that we never met...
My you remind me of a
man I used to sleep with
that's a face I'd never forget
And You can be Henry Miller
and I'll be Anais Nin
E cept this time it'll be even better,
We'll stay together in the end
Come on darlin', let's go back to bed
Put the phone machine on hold
Leave the dishes in the sink
do not answer the door
For you I'll be a poor man's wife
I'm gonna give you some more
Let the phone ring
Let's go back to sleep
