Let's Stay In

The candles are lit, the snow is flying

Rockefeller Center has just begun to shine

Streets are full of shoppers, those magic windows of Saks

And the pony rides around the park are leaving deeper tracks

Let's stay in

Turn off all the lights and just stay in

Gazing out the window at the lights below

Nothing urgent, no emergency, there's nowhere we need go

Let's use the crystal glasses, when did we use them last?

Splash of sparkling water, Kentucky Sour Mash

There's no reason for us to go out, none that I can see

Here's to you and me, let's stay in

Christmas gets a little crazy, the holidays are tough

Phone lines and deadlines and bottom lines, enough, enough, enough

Let's stay in

Put up a little pine tree and just stay in

We'll build ourselves a fire, soaking up the glow

Wonder what they're doing forty floors below

There's no reason we should go out, none that I can see

So here's to you and me, let's stay in
