Fancy restaurants are all well and good
We need a place that's much more low-key
Ambiance is here in this neighborhood
Dinner, music, wine - we'll be fine - you'll see
Dinner for two, let's make it a surprise
Something savory with just the right spice
Though we thrive on the twinkling in our eyes
Still kisses for starters sound very nice
This night, what a perfect end to our day
Dancing, romancing like lovers should be
The entree is that we're both here to stay
For dessert we'll have some morning coffee

Originally this began life as "Morning Coffee" written on February 9, 2009. The only part of the original still in this version is lines 5-8. Everything else I felt was clumsy (including the title), so I thought a rewrite was in order. I'm also much more happy with it's new title.
