I'd Rather Be With You

— Oh, excuse me… hello?
— Why does it take you so long?
— I was doing, uh…
— Yeah, look, look. Listen, we’ve been missing each other for some time now.
And I don’t know what to do about it
— Mhm, I know, but…
— Look, the travel, the job-it all keeps me away from you. I realize I haven’t
been all I could or should be, and I really wouldn’t blame you for seeing
someone else
— You know, we get involved in so many things, we get caught up giving things,
buying things, in place of love and affection…
— But I bought you those things, because I care!
— You bought those things, because you’re not here
(«Where do you keep the ice?»)
— I'd rather be with you…
I’d rather be with you, yeah
Yes, I’d rather be with you
I’d rather be with you, yeah (rather be with you)
Yes, I’d rather be with you
I’d rather be with you until I’m thru, oh yes I do
I’d rather be with you until that day we’ll fly away
I just love your smilin' face, in the early sun
If I can’t have you to myself, then life’s no fun
I’d rather be with you, yeah
Yes, I’d rather be with you
(Rather be with you) I’d rather be with you, yeah
Yes, I’d rather be with you (with you)
I’d rather be with you until I’m thru, oh yes I do
I wanna be your friend, not now and then, but 'til the end
I’m livin' and lovin', waitin' for the moment
When we’ve got time to give
And if I can’t get to love you, what’s a telephone bill?
I’d… rather be, rather be, rather be
Rather be, rather be, rather be
Ooh, ooh, yes…
