Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do
The streets are all busy
And you're still in bed
You should be up workin
But lying here instead.
I look outside, the weather's fine
They're playn music and drinkn wine
I could watse the day with you
I could slip away into
Another dimension.
What a perfect way,
to spend the day,
with you.
lets walk to the cafe
and sit in the sun
and read all the papers
and watch everyone
Cause life is short
and life is sweet
And some times you just got to set yourself free
I could waste the day with you.
I could slip away into
another dimension
What a perfect way
to spend the day
with you
(ooooo-oooo-ooo-ooo-oooo-ooo)
I could waste the day with you
I could slip away into
another dimension
what a perfect way
to spend the day
ya what a perfect way(ya)
to spend the day,
with you.
(ooo-ooooo-o-ooo-oooo-ooooo-ooo-ooo-oooo)
