Lyrics

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

Chorus
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
