Lyrics
100 YEARS OR SO @ Runk 2007
I write to say I had a lovely time. Thank you for the tea
As I walked home, the snow caressed the tree
I NEED TO SPEND MORE TIME WITH YOU, 100 YEARS OR SO
PERHAPS YOU FEEL THE SAME WAY TOO, PLEASE WRITE AND LET ME KNOW
On that cold December morn, your kitchen filled with sun
We read the Sunday Times ... that was such fun
The fire glowed and kept us warm, soft slippers on our feet
We didn't talk much, oh, it was so sweet
And I will long remember how, we played monopoly
All day long the phone would go, and we'd just let it ring
[Chorus]
Then I recall the movie show, late in the afternoon
I always hope we go again quite soon
We had a quiet supper then, we sipped a glass of red
Then we whispered secretly in the pillows of our bed
And I recall the pleasant dreams, I still remember them
I'll always hope I dream of you again
I write to say I had a lovely time
Thank you for the tea
[Chorus]
