[Verse 1]
I'd be glad to stay right here with you
Fact is, that is what I'd planned to do
But from that cool look on your face
I think I'll head South to a warmer place

[Verse 2]
Thought I'd given you the best of me
I'd be glad to share the rest of me
But there's a chill in your embrace
So I'd better head South to a warmer place

[Bridge]
Seems like yesterday we could kiss and build a fire
But now it's ten below
Seems like yesterday nights were warm with love's desire
But now it feels like snow

[Verse 3]
I don't mind a cold day now and then
But this long deep freeze has done me in
And it's too late to plead your case
So I'm goin' South to a warmer place

[Instrumental Interlude]
[Verse 3]
I don't mind a cold day now and then
But this long deep freeze has done me in
And it's too late to plead your case
So I'd better go South to a warmer place
