Verse:
Close to you my ev'ry dream comes true,
And I find my peace of mind depends on you;
For close to you, my heart is satisfied,
And I'm in seventh heaven when I'm by your side:
Chorus:
Where you are is where I want to be,
For where you are is paradise for me;
When you are near, my world is in its glory,
When you're away, well, that's another story;
Oh, darling, where you are becomes my treasure isle,
For my lucky star is hiding in your smile;
If you should ever leave me, then should you find you care,
Just tell me where you are and I'll be there.
