Lyrics
I want to slide over and take you in my arms
But we live in a time when people use alarms
When "8 to 5" arrives instead this time let's stay in bed
Why can't I slide over whenever I've a mind
Without your reservations to me there's always time
By morning if we still feel dead why don't we stay in bed
So in the middle of the night when I feel then time is right
For loving I reach for you
But unless I've made a date you insist that it's to late
You thought sleep was all that we came here to do
Why don't you slide over and look me in the eyes
Although it's late at night I like to be surprised
I know tomorrow is what you dread,
I know tomorrow morning we'll both feel dead,
And I don't really care what your boss said stay in bed
(Solo)
You're lying cuddled up and warm while I lay awake and form
My strategy for loving you
But when I make my attack you resist, you fight me back
Instead of getting kisses I end up black and blue
Why don't I slide over and take you in my arms
'Cause we live in a time when people use alarms
I know tomorrow we'll both feel dead,
I know tomorrow morning is what you dread,
But I don't really care what the boss said let's stay in bed
Come on let's stay in bed, I wanna stay in bed,
Let's stay in bed now
