WHEN I AM WITH YOU


Johnny Mathis 
1958



When I am with you,
Any dream that I may dream comes true.
Any star in the sky,
I can buy with a sigh when I am with you.
Whenever we meet,
Whatever the sweet occasion,
Where angels won't go,
I go with no persuasion.

When I am with you,
I am nothing I was before.
I am everything I ever wished,
I could be and more.
So it's not just for what you are yourself, 
That I love you as I do,
But for what I am when I am with you.

(bridge)

So it's not just for what you are yourself,
That I love you as I do,
But for what I am when I am with you.
