You're the Cream in My Coffee - Annette Hanshaw

You have a great way

An up-to-date way

Of telling me you love me

It gives me such a thrill

I know it always will

My head is turning

And just from learning

Your estimation of me

And as for you, I’ll say

I feel the self same way

You’re the cream in my coffee

You’re the salt in my stew

You will always be my necessity

I’d be lost without you

You’re the starch in my collar

You’re the lace in my shoe

You will always be my necessity

I’d be lost without you

Most girls tell love tales

And you’ll find each phrase dovetails

You’ve heard each known way

This way is my own way

You’re the sail of my love boat

You’re the captain and crew

You will always be my necessity

I’d be lost without you

You are the cream in my coffee

And you are the salt in my stew

You will always be my necessity

I’d be lost without you

You are the starch in my collar

And you are the lace in my shoe

You will always be my necessity

Oh, I’m wild about you

You give life savor

Bring out its flavor

So this is clear, dear

You’re my worcestershire

You’re the sail of my love boat

You’re the captain and crew

You will always be my necessity

I’d be lost without you
