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 streams
Cozy to hide in, to live side by side in
Don't let it abide in my dreams

Picture me upon your 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 and relations on weekend vacations
We won't have it known
That we have 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, and a girl for me
Can't you see how happy we would be?
