with you

Sam Cooke

with you
allthough I'm poor
I feel like a king
with you
though I have nothing
I feel I have everything

but without you my dreams soon fade away
I'd be here crying day after day
promise me you'll never leave me

when I'm with you
life means everything to me
with you
just like a child I'm happy as I can be
without you I'm lost like a child all alone
crying for its mother and wishing she was home
I know you'll never leave me

you are my love
for your wonderful love I live
you are my life
for your wonderful love my life I gladly give

when I'm with you
do I feel the way that I do
with you
I found a love that's always true
but without you I'm lost trying to find my way
I'd be here crying day after day
promise me you'll never leave me
