All the Tea In China

Your my cup of tea
Your the only one for me
I really like you
you make me glad
I can't stop thinking of you
have I've been had
Quickly kiss me
before I turn blue and sad
When I hold you
my thoughts turn naughty and bad

I couldn't leave you
for all the tea in China
I wouldn't leave you
for all the tea in China
There isn't enough of anything
if it comes without you
I couldn't leave you
I wouldn't leave you
for all the tea in China

I worked so hard
to find my love true
I couldn't be happier
that you love me too
It's time for those blues
to fly away
It's time for happiness
time to play
All I want is to be with you
each night and each day

I couldn't leave you
for all the tea in China
I wouldn't leave you
for all the tea in China
There isn't enough of anything
if it comes without you
I couldn't...shouldn't...wouldn't...leave you
for all the tea in China.

Let's take a coffee break.
