The Piña Colada by Rupert Holmes

I was (1)__________ of my lady, we'd (2)________ together too long
Like a worn out recording of a favorite song
So while she lay (3)__________ sleepin' I read the paper in bed
And in the (4)________________ columns, (5)__________ was this letter I read

If you (6)________ piña coladas and (7)______________ caught in the rain
If you're not into yoga, if you have half a brain
If you like making love at midnight in the dunes of the cape
Then I'm the (8)________ that you've (9)____________ for, write to me and escape

I didn't think (10)__________ my lady, I know that sounds kind of mean
But me and my old lady had (11)____________ into the same old dull routine
So I (12)__________ to the paper, (13)________ out a personal ad
And though I'm nobody's poet, I thought it wasn't half bad

Yes, I (14)________ (15)__________ (16)______________ and getting caught in the rain
I'm not much into health food, I am into champagne
I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon and cut (17)______________ all this red tape
At a bar called O'Malley's where we'll (18)________ our escape

So I waited with high hopes and she walked in the place
I knew her smile in an instant, I (19)________ 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 like (20)__________ coladas and gettin' caught in the rain
And the (21)________ of the ocean and the (22)__________ of champagne
If you (23)________ making love at (24)________________ in the dunes on the cape
You're the lady I've looked for, come with me and escape

If you (25)________ piña coladas and (26)______________ caught in the rain
If you're not into yoga, if you have (27)________ a brain
If you like making (28)________ at midnight in the (29)__________ on the cape
Then I'm the love that you've looked for, write to me and escape
