lyrics

I Just Want To Be With You


Oh no you didn't see me holding back my tears
As we were talking on the telephone last night
I passed it off like I was someone who was cool
But it was more like I was gonna lose my mind

I couldn't tell if you were right or I was wrong
I only wish that you and I could move along
Can't figure if I'm a schlemiel or a schlimazel
But luck ain't workin' out for me today, oh no...

I Just Want To Be With You [x2]
~
So I went out; I tried to drink you from my mind
But everywhere I looked I thought I saw your face
Then all the telephones were beggin' me to dial
And then my car, it drove itself right by your place -how strange...

I Just Want To Be With You [x2]

I turn on my radio. I keep hearin' them sad old songs like
Fa Fa Fa Fa Fa Fa Fa Fa Fa, and Lonely Teardrops, and
I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry... and Cry To Me
There's Only So Much I Can Do To Keep My Mind Off Of You

Oh no you didn't see me holding back my tears
As we were talking by the telephone today
I passed it off like there was somewhere I should be
But it was more like I was hoping you would say to me:

I Just Want To Be With You [x2]
I just want to know how I can hear you say
I Just Want To Be With You

I never know where I stand with you, girl
You keep me guessing again and again
But if I knew, it would not be the same
You move my heart and my soul
