The Piña Colada by Rupert Holmes

I was tired of my lady, we'd (1)________ together too long
Like a worn out recording of a favorite song
So while she lay there sleepin' I read the paper in bed
And in the personal columns, there was this letter I read

If you (2)________ (3)__________ (4)______________ and getting caught in the rain
If you're not (5)________ yoga, if you have half a brain
If you like making (6)________ at (7)________________ in the dunes of the cape
Then I'm the love that you've looked for, write to me and escape

I didn't think about my lady, I know that (8)____________ kind of mean
But me and my old lady had (9)____________ into the same old (10)________ routine
So I wrote to the paper, took out a personal ad
And (11)____________ I'm nobody's poet, I thought it wasn't (12)________ bad

Yes, I like piña coladas and getting caught in the rain
I'm not much into (13)____________ food, I am into champagne
I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon and cut (14)______________ all this red tape
At a bar (15)____________ O'Malley's where we'll (16)________ our escape

So I waited (17)________ high hopes and she walked in the place
I knew her smile in an instant, I (18)________ the curve of her face
It was my own lovely lady and she said, "oh, it's you"
Then we laughed for a moment and I said, "I never knew"

That you (19)________ (20)__________ (21)______________ and gettin' caught in the rain
And the feel of the (22)__________ and the (23)__________ of champagne
If you like making (24)________ at midnight in the dunes on the cape
You're the lady I've looked for, come with me and escape

If you like piña (25)______________ and getting caught in the rain
If you're not (26)________ yoga, if you have half a brain
If you like making love at (27)________________ in the dunes on the cape
Then I'm the love that you've looked for, (28)__________ to me and escape
