Rufus Wainwright - Baby, It`s Cold Outside (Feat. Sharon Van Etten)

I really can't stay
Baby it's cold outside
I've got to go away
Baby it's cold outside
This evening has been
Been hoping that you'd drop in
So very nice
I'll hold your hands
they're just like ice
My mother will start to worry
Beautiful what's your hurry
My father will be pacing the floor
Listen to the fireplace roar
So really I'd better scurry
Beautiful please don't hurry
Maybe just a half a drink more
Put some records on while I pour
The neighbors might think
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 hat
your hair looks swell
I ought to say no no no
Mind if I move a little closer
At least I'm gonna say that I tried
What's the sense
in hurting my pride
I really can't stay
Baby don't hold out
Ahh but it's cold outside
I simply must go
Baby it’s cold outside
The answer is no
Baby it’s cold outside
The welcome has been
How lucky that you dropped in
So nice and warm
Look out the window at that storm
My sister will be suspicious
Gosh your lips look delicious
My brother will be
there at the door
Like waves
upon a tropical shore
My maiden
aunt’s mind is vicious
Gosh your lips look delicious
Well maybe just a cigarette more
Never such a blizzard before
I've got to go home
Oh baby you'll freeze out there
Say lend me your comb
It's up to your knees out there
You've really been grand
I thrill when you touch my hand
But don't you see
How can you do this thing to me
There's bound to be talk tomorrow
Think of my life long sorrow
At least there
will be plenty implied
If you caught pneumonia and died
I really can't stay
Get over that hold out
Oh but it's cold outside
