Tea for Two

Karen James

TEA FOR TWO
Words by Irving Caesar, Music by Vincent Youmans. 1924

Picture you
Upon my 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 you'll awake
And start to bake
A sugar cake
For me to take
For all the boys to see.

We will raise a family,
A boy for you,
A girl for me,
Can't you see
How happy we would be?

(one of the songs my Father's barbershop group sings)
