Love Needs A Holiday

She was circling the Holiday Inn

Just about to go 'round again

When her cell phone rang

And it was him sayin', "Room 183"

They've never done this before

But when he met her at the door

They broke out smiling 'cause they were sure

That this is what they need

She said, "Mama's got the kids"

And he said, "We got the room for the weekend"

They love their kids and their house

And that dog in the yard

Oh and their neighbors for the most part

They love each other but it's hard to be lovers

When life gets in the way

Sometimes love needs a holiday

He hung out the 'Do Not Disturb'

To shut out the rest of the world

48 hours of just him and her

You can't get this at home

She pulled the covers back and

He said, "Yeah I'm in to that"

They flopped down together and took a nap

No, you can't get this at home

They woke up in each other's arms

And that's where they spent the rest of the weekend

They love their kids and their house

And that dog in the yard

Oh and their neighbors for the most part

They love each other but it's hard to be lovers

When life gets in the way

Sometimes love needs a holiday

Room service dinner with candles and wine

A night with no homework and no baby crying

They hold each other like they used to do

He whispers, "Girl, I've missed you"

They love their kids and their house

And that dog in the yard

Oh and their neighbors for the most part

They love each other but it's hard to be lovers

When life gets in the way

Sometimes love needs a holiday, needs a holiday

He hung out the 'Do Not Disturb'

Love needs a holiday

(Love needs a holiday)

Just shut out the rest of the world

Love needs a holiday

(Love needs a holiday)
