I'm Staying Home from Work Today

Don't move your arm,
Go back to sleep,
Don't put the coffee up to perk;
I'll turn off the alarm,
Go back to sleep,
I've decided not to go to work.

To lie right near
The one that I adore
And watch the sunlit patterns on the floor.
To hold you, love,
And dream with you this way---
That's why I'm staying home from work today.
To breakfast at our ease
And toast the bread together,
And all the things we do alone
We'll do instead together.
To tour the park
When day is at an end
And see the quiet evening colors blend.
To tell you
All the things I haven't had the time to say,
That's why
I'm staying home from work today.
