The Piña Colada by Rupert Holmes

I was tired of my lady, we'd been together too long
Like a worn out recording of a (1)________________ 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 into yoga, if you (5)________ half a brain
If you like making love at midnight in the dunes of the cape
Then I'm the (6)________ that you've (7)____________ for, write to me and escape

I didn't think about my lady, I (8)________ that sounds kind of mean
But me and my old (9)________ had fallen into the same old (10)________ routine

I'm not much into health food, I am into champagne
I've got to meet you by (14)________________ (15)________ and cut through all (16)________ red tape
At a bar called O'Malley's where we'll plan our escape

So I waited with (17)________ (18)__________ and she walked in the place

Then we (19)______________ for a moment and I said, "I (20)__________ knew"

That you like piña (21)______________ and gettin' caught in the rain

If you like making love at (24)________________ in the dunes on the cape

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