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

      
in' 
           
I read the pap

            
er in bed
           
And in the per

                
sonal columns
              
There was this

             
 letter I read

              
If you like pi

            
ña coladas
              
and gettin' ca

          
ught in the ra

      
in
           
if you're not 

            
into yoga
           
if you have ha

            
lf a brain

            
if you like ma

             
kin' love at m

         
idnight
           
in the dunes o

          
f a cape
             
then I'm the l

            
ove that you'v

              
e looked for

d escape.

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

    
.

              
Yes, I like pi

           
ña 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.

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
