Baby It's Cold Outside - John Legend & Kelly Clarkson John Legend, Kelly Clarkson

I really can't stay

- but baby it's cold outside

I've got to go away

- but 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 words you're humming

And father will be pacing the floor

- Listen to the fireplace roar

So really I'd better scurry

- Beautiful, please don't hurry

Well, maybe just a half a drink more

- Put some records on while I pour

The neighbours might think

- But 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 the spell

- I'll take your hat, your hairs looks swell

I ought to say no, no, no sir

- Mind if I move in closer?

At least I'm gonna say that I tried

- What's the sense of hurting my pride?

I really can't stay

- Oh baby don't hold out

Ah but it's cold outside

- Baby it's cold outside

I simply must go

- But baby it's cold outside

The answer is no

- But baby it's cold outside

The welcome has been

- How lucky that you dropped in

So nice and warm

- Look out that window at that storm

My sister will be suspicious

- God your lips look delicious

My brother will be there at the door

- Waves upon a tropical shore

My maiden aunt's mind is vicious

- Gosh your lips are delicious

Well, maybe just a cigarette more

- Never such a blizzard before

I got to get home

- But baby you'd freeze out there

Say, lend me a coat

- It's up to your knees out there

You've really been grand

- I'm thrilled when you touch my hand

Why don't you see

- How can you do this thing to me?

There's bound to be talk tomorrow

- Think of my lifelong sorrow

At least there will be plenty implied

- If you caught pneumonia and died

I really can't stay

- Get over that hold-out

Ah but it's cold outside

- Ah but it's cold outside

Where could you be going

When the wind is blowing

And it's cold outside?

Baby it's cold, cold outside
