Perry Como ~ We Get Letters 1957
 
If I Could Be With You  NOT RELEASED 
( One Hour Tonight )
 
If I could be with you, I'd love you strong,
If I could be with you, I'd love ya long,
. . . want ya to know, I wouldn't go,
until I told ya honey why I love ya so!
 
If I could be with you, one hour tonight,
If I was free to do the things that I might,
I'm tellin' ya true, I'd be anythin' but blue,
If I could be with you, for just an hour,
If I could be with you!

If I could be with you, I'd love you strong,
If I could be with you, I'd love ya long,
I want ya to know, I wouldn't go,
until I told ya honey why I love ya so!
 
If I could be with you, one hour tonight,
If I was free to do the things I might,
I'm tellin' ya true, I'd be anythin' but blue,
If I could be with you, for just an hour,
If I could be with you!
