I'D Rather Be With You

I could hit a golf ball Or drink on a pub crawl. I could watch the champions play But there are better things to do today I could be with you. I could be party fellow. At a lively disco. I could work late Or take my secretary on a date. I could do all these things But my heart sings another song I’d rather be with you. We could sit and talk, Or walk barefoot on the sand Holding hands. We could dine by candlelight And whet our appetite With the songs of yesterday As our minds dance life’s cabaret. I could look into your eyes and say Don’t ever leave. Don’t ever go away Of all the things there are to do I’d rather be with you
