If I Could Be with You (One Hour Tonight)

作词 : Henry Creamer/James P Johnson

作曲 : Henry Creamer/James P Johnson

I'm so blue, I don't know what to do

All day through, I'm pining just for you

I did wrong when I let you go away

For now I grieve about you night and day

I'm unhappy and dissatisfied

But I'd be happy if I had you by my side

If I could be with you, I'd love you strong

If I could be with you, I'd love you long

I want you to know I wouldn't go

Until I told you, honey, why I love you so

If I could be with you one hour tonight

If I was free to do the things I might

I'm telling you true, I'd be anything but blue

If I could be with you

All dressed up but still nowhere to go

How I wish that I could see a show

But here I wait with no one to call me dear

The one I love is many miles from here

Central, give me one-two-three-four-J

Oh, won't you listen, little sweetie, while I say

If I could be with you, I'd love you strong

If I could be with you, I'd love you long

I want you to know I wouldn't go

Until I told you, honey, why I love you so

If I could be with you one hour tonight

If I was free to do the things I might

I'm telling you true, I'd be anything but blue

If I could be with you
