Baby It S Cold Outside lyrics

I really can`t stay
But baby it`s cold outside
I`ve got to go way
Whoa, but it`s cold outside
This evening has been
In hopin that you`d drop in
So very nice
I`ll hold your hands, they`re just like ice

My mother will start to warn me
Beautiful, what`s your hurry
My father will be pacing the floor
Listen to the fireside roar
Well really, I should just scurry
Beautiful, please don`t hurry
But maybe just to have a drink more
Put a record on while I pour

The neighbors might say
Oh baby it`s bad out there
Say what`s in this drink
No cabs to be had out there
I wish I knew how
Your eyes are like starlight now
To break this spell
I`ll take your hand, your hair looks swell

I ought to say no, no, no, no sir
Mind if I move in closer
At least I can say that I tried
What`s the sense of hurting my pride
I really cant stay
Oh baby don`t hold out, oh cos it`s...
Baby it`s cold outside (Mel C & Frank)
