[Intro]
 
 

[Verse 1]
              
I was tired of

    
 my lady
             
We'd been toge

         
ther too long
              
Like a worn ou

   
t recording
             
Of a favorite 


song
              
So while she l

         
ay there sleep

ing
             
I read the pap

     
er in bed
              
And in the per

      
sonal columns
             
There was this

         
 letter I read


[Chorus]
              
"If you like p

    
iña coladas
             
And getting ca

           
ught in the ra

in
              
If you're not 

    
into yoga
             
If you have ha

   
lf a brain
            
If you like ma

         
king love at m

idnight
             
In the dunes o

              
n the cape
             
Then I'm the l

ove that you'v

e looked for
             
Write to me, a

        
nd escape"


[Interlude]
 



[Verse 2]
              
I didn't think

          
 about my lady
             
I know that so

            
unds kind of m

ean
              
But me and my 

    
old lady
             
Had fallen int

      
o the same old

 dull routine
              
So I wrote to 

    
the paper
             
Took out a per

     
sonal ad
              
And though I'm

         
 nobody's poet
             
I thought it w

           
asn't half bad


[Chorus]
              
"Yes, I like p

    
iña coladas
             
And getting ca

           
ught in the ra

in
              
I'm not much i

       
nto health foo

d
             
I am into cham

          
pagne
              
I've got to me

          
et you by tomo

rrow noon
             
And cut throug

            
h all this red

       
 tape
           
At a bar calle

d O'Malley's

Where we'll pl

an our escape"


[Interlude]
 



[Verse 3]
              
So I waited wi

    
th high hopes
             
And she walked

        
 in the place
              
I knew her smi

         
le in an insta

nt
             
I knew the cur

         
ve of her face
              
It was my own 

       
lovely lady
             
And she said, 

         
"Aw, it's you"
              
Then we laughe

        
d for a moment
             
And I said, "I

      
 never knew"


[Chorus]
              
"That you like

       
d piña coladas
             
And getting ca

         
ught in the ra

in
              
And the feel o

      
f the ocean
             
And the taste 

               
of champagne
              
If you like ma

             
king love at m

idnight
             
In the dunes o

             
n the cape
              
You're the lad

       
y I've looked 

for
             
Come with me, 

              
and escape"
