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 all 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



I'm 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

Its 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
