Lyrics
you give me more than I need
more than I can measure
you give me more than I need
more laughter and pleasure
we don’t owe a thing to anyone
we can do exactly what we want
so we start the day with a kiss
and don’t get out of bed until 1
then the lunch we eat with delight
fills us with desire in broad daylight
but who will choose the pastry of the day?
these important questions fill our day
you give me more than I need
more than I can measure
you give me more than I need
more laughter and pleasure
I don’t have to ask “what’s happening next?”
I prefer to stay here in your arms
Linger in this moment we’ve found
Till it’s time to go paint the town
But by the time we finally hit the street
It’s getting late to find someplace to eat
Then it’s time to go back to bed
Love you Santa baby’s all she said
