A Cup of Coffee, a Sandwich and You

A Cup of Coffee, a Sandwich, and You - Gertrude Lawrence

Lyrics by：Meyer/Rose/Dubin

Composed by：Meyer/Rose/Dubin

In the movie plays of nowadays

A romance always must begin in June

Tales in magazines have all their scenes

Of love laid in a garden 'neath the Moon

But I don't miss that kind of bliss

All I want is this

A cup of coffee a sandwich and you

A cozy corner a table for two

A half-an-hour to cuddle and coo

With lots of hugging and kissing in view

I don't need music lobster and wine

Whenever your eyes gaze into mine

The things I long for are simple and few

Just a cup of coffee a sandwich and you

If it is because you can't afford more

Sandwiches and coffee we will share

But if it's to help you save and hoard more

I can plainly see how much you care

Now if were you flirting with me

My advance would be

I've got a thousand and nothing to do

I'd like to lend it or spend it on you

I know I'm reckless but you want some girl

To choose that necklace I'll buy every whirl

Oh Mister Roubens I'll take a chance

Perhaps for coffee but not for romance

The things I long for are fewer than few

A cup of coffee a sandwich and you
