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 our 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 or relations on weekend vacations 
We won't have it known, dear 
That we own a telephone, dear 
Day will break and I'll awake 
And start to bake a sugar cake 
For you 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?
