I'm discontented with homes that I've rented
So I have invented my own.
Darling, this place is lovers 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 dream

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 or relations
On weekend vacations
We won't have it known
That we have a telephone, dear

Day will break and I'll wake
And start to bake a sugar cake
For 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 ?
