Lyrics
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 stream
Cozy to hide in
To live side by side in
Don't let it abide in
Our dream
Picture me upon your knee (I like that)
Just tea for two and two for tea (uh-uh)
Just me for you
And you for me alone
Carmen, there'll be 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 own a telephone, dear
Day will break
And I'll awake and start to bake
A sugar cake for you to take for all the boys to see
We will raise a family
A boy for you, and a girl for me
Can't you see how happy we would be?
Writer(s): Irving Caesar, Vincent Youmans
