I think I can tell
why you're acting this way towards me
I think I can tell
why you're feeling this way towards me
So I'll just leave you alone
and take my time
and see what time can do
I'll just stay away
but when December comes
I'll still be in love
with you

But I'll cool it till December
Cool things nice and low
I'll cool it till December
and then see how it goes

I won't gaze at you like I'm doing now
I won't write a love note like I did that time
Won't sit and bug you like I'm doing now
I'll just cool it to freezing
way down low
But if you smile at me
just watch the warmth flow

I'll just cool it till December
Cool and oh so better
And when you've forgotten all about me
I'll heat it up again

I'll cool it till December
Give our love time
Cool it till December
and then you'll be mine
