Near You - 1947

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 19 Feb 2002

Some folks like the country,
fishing in a stream,
Others like the mountains,
that's where they can dream.
Some folks like the city,
love to see a show,
I'm a little diff'rent,
don't care where I go.

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 worth while,
by telling me that I'll
spend the rest of my days
Near you.

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 worth while,
by telling me that I'll
spend the rest of my days
Near you.
