— Tomi?

— Yeah, baby?

— You know, this can’t be a one-way thing

— Oh, it ain’t no one-way thing, baby

— You sure it’s not a one-way thing?

— Oh, most definitely not a one way thing

— I mean, you women think you can do anything you wanna do

— Hahah…

— Now look here

It takes more than a robin to make the winter go

Oh, it takes two lips… of fire, ha!

To melt away the snow, huh

And it takes two hearts a-cookin'

(Say it)

To make our fire grow

And

baby, you’ve got what it takes

Uh, lookit here!

You know it takes a lot of kissin'

(lookit here)

To make a romance sweet

Oh, it takes a lot of lovin'

To make my life complete

And it takes two hearts a-cookin'

(That's right baby)

To make our fire grow
