Two by two the lovers step,
Through the crisp still falling evening snow
Because they cut clean through the night I hope that they will
I hope they lead me to your door

The music's loud, the party's hot,
The people are the kind I like to
Sit and talk with a while,
I'd love to stay but now she's going,
So I drop her off, on the way,
She'll need a coat, it's started snowing
Yeah, I'll drop her off with a smile,
I'd love to stay but now I'm going

Two by two the lovers slip,
Through the frozen streets of Birmingham
Her complexion says it all, if only she would
Bring me alive as cotton falls

The music's loud, the party's hot,
The people are the kind I like to
Sit and talk with a while,
I'd love to stay but now she's going,
So I drop her off, on the way,
She'll need a coat, it's started snowing
Yeah, I'll drop her off with a smile,
I'd love to stay but now I'm going (going going)

I won't feel the cold,
Not when I hear the music taking hold
I won't feel the cold,
Not when I hear the music taking hold of me

The music's loud, the party's hot,
The people are the kind I like to
Sit and talk with a while,
I'd love to stay but now she's going,
So I drop her off, on the way,
She'll need a coat, it's started snowing
Yeah, I'll drop her off with a smile,
I'd love to stay but now I'm going
