Lyrics

I love the east. I love the west
North and south, their both the best
But I only want go there as a guest
'Cause I love being here with you

I love the sea. I love the shore
I love the rocks, and what is more
You and they never be a bore
'Cause I love being here with you

Singing in the shower
Laughing by the hour
Life is such a breezy game
I love all kinds of weather
As log as we're together
Oh, I love to hear you say my name

I love good wine, fine cuisine
Candle light. I love the scene
'Cause, baby, if you know just what I mean
I love being here with you

I like a dance by fred astaire
And brando's eyes, yul brynner's hair
But I think to tell you's only fair
That I love being here with you

And cary grant, oh do-dah-day
His utter charm takes me away
But don't get me wrong, how do you say
I love being here with you

Basie's band a-swingin'
I like ella's singing
'Cause there's something else, you know
They know how to say it
They know how to play it
They wind it up and let it go

I love the thrill of new york shows
I'd love to kiss durante's nose
But I'll like to say before I close
I love being here with you!
