about

After eons of being the warm body in bed, I finally met someone who gives off as much body heat as me. Reason #2963 why I married her.

lyrics

January crawls along on its belly
Like the rest of us it cannot feel its feet
It's been like this since fall, and I know it drives you crazy
You want to shake the daylight like the sheets
But Van Morrison is playing, the cat's stretched on the floor
Our dinner's on the stovetop, it'll simmer there for hours more
And I've got fleece up to my neck and blankets to my chin
But I won't be truly warm until I let you in

chorus:
So let's jump in bed
Slip beneath the covers
And we'll curl right up
Like we're symbiotic lovers
'Cause the temperature's falling
There's nothing to do
Except stay right here with my sweet
Exothermic you

I know that you had plans, 'cause I saw your to-do list
Even free days never manage to be free
So you're stuck with idle hands, and that makes you gnaw the curtains
But why don't you put your idle hands 'round me?
'Cause the sidewalk's been shoveled, I piled it in the yard
And Turner Classic Movies is playing Sunset Boulevard
And yes, my toes are freezing when they're tucked against your skin
But I won't be truly warm until I let you in

(chorus)

So join me in the bedroom, there's no better place to be
You bring the bag of Chips Ahoy, I'll bring the pot of Earl Grey tea
Don't even think of going out—the air is far too thin
Let me lift the corner, let me let you in

(chorus)
