ANDY WILLIAMS - NEAR YOU lyrics

rate me

Francis Craig

- words and music by Francis Craig and Kermit Goell

- lyrics as recorded August 4, 1947 by The Andrews Sisters

with Vic Schoen & His Orchestra

There's just one place for me, near you

It's like heaven to be, near you

Times when we're apart

I can't face my heart

Say you'll never stray

More than just two lips away

If my hours could be spent near you

I'd be more than content near you

Make my life worthwhile

By telling me that I'll

Spend the rest of my days near you

------ instrumental break ------

There is just one place for me, I'm happy when I'm near you

It's wonderful as heaven, a special kind of heaven, but only when I'm near you

Times when we're apart I wonder how I can face my heart

Say you'll never stray

More than just two lips away

If my waking hours could be spent while near you

I would be content, wonderfully content, just to be near you

Make my life worthwhile

By telling me that I'll

Spend the rest of my days

All of those happy, happy days

So near you
