Tea for Two

Vincent Youmans

Audio & Video

Coming soon...

Lyrics

Vertical Divider
I’m discontented with homes that I’ve 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
Cosy to hide in, to live side by side in,
Don’t let it abide in my dreams
 
Picture you upon my knee,
Just tea for two and two for tea
Just me for you
And you for me alone
 
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 you’ll awake

And start to bake a sugar cake
For me to take
For all the boys to see
We will raise a family
A boy for you, a girl for me
Oh, can’t you see
How happy we would be?

​Picture you upon my knee,
Just tea for two and two for tea
Just me for you
And you for me alone
 
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 you’ll awake

And start to bake a sugar cake
For me to take
For all the boys to see
 
We will raise a family
A boy for you, a girl for me
Oh, can’t you see
How happy we would be?
