"Summer Home In Your Arms" lyrics

"Summer Home In Your Arms"

You take your coat off and throw it on the floor
Night delivers you to my arms once more
You feel so familiar as you get into bed
Cigarette smoke halo around you head

You lean over and kiss me so sweet
Nobody wake me if this is a dream

I'm gonna build myself a summer home
Build myself a summer home in your arms

I kiss you with the languid adoration of slumber
Landin' random as lotto numbers
One on each eye
And, oops, one on your nose
Ten for each of your cute little toes

You lean over and kiss me so sweet
Nobody wake me if this is a dream

I'm gonna build myself a summer home
Build myself a summer home in your arms

Some people build with wood and brick
Some people build with stone and stick
I'm gonna build mine kiss by kiss

I'm gonna build myself a summer home
Build myself a summer home in your arms

A bit of a mess, and I'm gone too much
But when I'm away, it's you I long to touch
Certain things remind me, it's such a special treat
It's these little things that bring you to me

Like when you lean over and kiss me so sweet
Nobody wake me if this is a dream

I'm gonna build myself a summer home
Build myself a summer home
Build myself a summer home in your arms

Built with all your charms
