[Carissa:]
I really can't stay
[Michael:]
But baby, it's cold outside
[Carissa:]
I've got to go away
[Michael:]
But baby, it's cold outside
[Carissa:]
This evening has been
[Michael:]
Been hoping that you'd drop in
[Carissa:]
So very nice
[Michael:]
I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice
[Carissa:]
My mother will start to worry
[Michael:]
Beautiful, what's your hurry?
[Carissa:]
My father will be pacing the floor
[Michael:]
Listen to the fireplace roar
[Carissa:]
So really I'd better scurry
[Michael:]
Beautiful, please don't hurry
[Carissa:]
But maybe just a half a drink more
[Michael:]
Put some records on while I pour
[Carissa:]
The neighbors might think
[Michael:]
Baby, it's bad out there
[Carissa:]
Say what's in this drink?
[Michael:]
No cabs to be had out there
[Carissa:]
I wish I knew how
[Michael:]
Your eyes are like starlight now
[Carissa:]
To break this spell
[Michael:]
I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell
[Carissa:]
I ought to say, no, no, no sir
[Michael:]
Mind if I move in closer?
[Carissa:]
At least I'm gonna say that I tried
[Michael:]
What's the sense in hurtin' my pride?
[Carissa:]
I really can't stay
[Michael:]
Oh baby don't hold out
[Carissa, then both:]
But baby, it's cold outside
[Carissa:]
I simply must go
[Michael:]
But baby, it's cold outside
[Carissa:]
The answer is no
[Michael:]
But baby, it's cold outside
[Carissa:]
Your welcome has been
[Michael:]
How lucky that you dropped in
[Carissa:]
So nice and warm
[Michael:]
Look out the window at this dawn
[Carissa:]
My sister will be suspicious
[Michael:]
Gosh, your lips look delicious
[Carissa:]
My brother will be there at the door
[Michael:]
Waves upon the tropical shore
[Carissa:]
My maiden aunts mind is vicious
[Michael:]
Gosh, your lips are delicious
[Carissa:]
But maybe just a cigarette more
[Michael:]
Never such a blizzard before
[Carissa:]
I've gotta get home
[Michael:]
But baby, you'd freeze out there
[Carissa:]
Say lend me a coat
[Michael:]
It's up to your knees out there
[Carissa:]
You've really been grand
[Michael:]
I thrill when you touch my hand
[Carissa:]
But don't you see?
[Michael:]
How can you do this thing to me?
[Carissa:]
There's bound to be talk tomorrow
[Michael:]
Think of my lifelong sorrow
[Carissa:]
At least there will be plenty implied
[Michael:]
If you got pneumonia and died
[Carissa:]
I really can't stay
[Michael:]
Get over that old out
[Both:]
Baby, it's cold
Baby, it's cold outside
