If I Could Be With You (One Hour Tonight)
Composer(s): Henry Creamer; James P. Johnson
Performer(s): Jack Teagarden
and multiple other artists



I'm so blue, I don't know what to do
All day through, I seem to say to you
I did wrong when I let you go away
'Cause now I dream about you night and day
I'm so unhappy and dissatisfied
I'll be happy if I had you by my side

If I could be with you one li'l hour tonight
And free to do all those little things I might
I want you to know you wouldn't go
Until I told you that I loved you so
If I could be with you I'd love you long
If I could be with you I'd love you strong
And I'm telling you for true, you'd be anything but blue
If I could be with you
