I'd be glad to stay right here
with you
Fact is, that is what I'd
planned to
But from that fool look on your
face
I think I'll head South to a warmer place
Thought I'd given you the best
of me
I'd be glad to share the rest of
me
But there's a chill in your
embrace
So, I'd better head South to a warmer place
Seems like yesterday we could
kiss and build a fire
But now it's ten below
Seems like yesterday nights were
warm with love's desire
But now it feels like snow
I don't mind a cold day now and
then
But this long deep freeze has
done me in
And it's too late to plead your
case
So I'm goin' South to a warmer
place
<instrumental-full chorus>
I don't mind a cold day now and
then
But this long deep freeze has
done me in
And it's too late to plead your
case
So I'd better go South to a warmer place
