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 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
