YOU OUGHT TO BE WITH ME |

|
Sit right down and talk to me, |
|
about how you want to be, |
|
you ought to be with me, |
|
ya, you ought to be with me. |
|
Thinking about what people do, |
|
talking about how I love you, |
|
thinking there's nothing to what they say, |
|
you ought to be with me, anyway. |
|
They don't want to see us do, |
|
all of the dumb things we want to, |
|
you ought to be with me, |
|
hey, you ought to be with me. |
|
You don't have to waste my time, |
|
if you want to be a friend of mine, |
|
you can be denied and walk away, |
|
and turn your back for another day. |
|
You ought to be the kind of girl, |
|
that can brighten up this old world, |
|
and it's hard to see why you and me, |
|
can't be together happily. |
|
I'm trying to realize, |
|
you being with some other guy, |
|
I don't know the reason why, |
|
you ought to be with me until I die. |
|
(you ought to be with me until I die) |
|
I don't want to waste my time, |
|
if you want to be a friend of mine, |
|
I want to hold you tight, love you right, |
|
put good feelin' in your night. |
