You know I love my Lady, been together so long

Like a worn-out recording, of my favorite song

So while she lay there sleeping, I read the paper in bed

And in the personal columns, there was this letter that read

If you like Piña Coladas, and getting caught in the rain

If you're not into yoga, if you have half-a-brain

If you like making love at midnight, in the dunes of the cape

I'm the love that you've looked for, write to me, and escape

I didn't think about my lady, I know that sounds kind of mean

But me and my old lady

Had fallen into the same old dull routine

So I wrote to the paper, took out a personal ad

And though I'm nobody's poet, I thought it wasn't half-bad

Yes, I like Piña Coladas, and getting caught in the rain

I'm not much into health food, but I am into champagne

I've got to meet you by tomorrow

And cut through all this red tape

At a bar called Scrappy Malloy's, we'll plan our escape

So I waited with high hopes, then she walked in the place

I knew her smile in an instant, I knew the curve of her face

It was my own lovely lady, and she said: oh, it's you

And we laughed for a moment, and I said: I never knew

I never knew you liked Piña Coladas

Or getting caught in the rain and the feel of the ocean

And the taste of champagne

If you like making love at midnight, in the dunes of the cape

You're the lady that I've looked for, come with me and escape
