lyrics

The cold is slowing me up
Walking three blocks from the store
To my fifth floor walkup
And I lean my bags against the door
And I am home
Trip on my shoe, and turn on the light
And I call to say I can’t wait to see you tonight

Doo da doo…

I hope that you like tuna
I made it special just for you
Or we could order take-out
If you would rather have Chinese food
I dab on cologne
Put away my shoes and dim the lights
And I really can’t wait to see her tonight

Doo da doo…

Perhaps I should play some music
But don’t play just any old song
Put something eclectic on
Coltrane Mingus or Bach
Oh no look at the clock it’s late 
I still need time to check on the tuna

She’s calling from the lobby
So I go and buzz her in
By the time she gets up to the fifth floor
She’s so out of breath, that she falls into my arms
And we are home
Candles and wine the stars align
And I tell her I’m really glad to see her (you) tonight

Doo da doo…
Doo da doo…
Doo da doo
