I Only Want To Be With You LINKS ABOUT THIS SONG music/lyrics: Mike Hawker and Igor Raymonde release date of this version: January 22, 2024 length: 3 min 12 sec vocals: Chris Tong karaoke arrangement: KaraFun Karaoke A happy, upbeat, high energy dance song, and one of my favorites. Dusty Springfield's 1964 hit, I Only Want To Be With You has an incredible driving beat, and a melody that mirrors that driving beat. The original arrangement doesn't really pick up on that beat as much as the Bay City Roller's 1976 version, so I am singing to a karaoke arrangement based on the Bay City Rollers' much more energetic version, and really emphasizing the beat with my singing style. I have also significantly lowered the key, because I think the song sounds much better when sung with a low voice. LYRICS I don't know what it is that makes me love you so. I only know I never want to let you go. 'Cause you started something, oh, can't you see? That ever since we met you've got a hold on me. It happens to be true, I only want to be with you. It doesn't matter where you go or what you do. I want to spend each moment of the day with you. Well, look what has happened with just one kiss. I never knew that I could be in love like this. It's crazy but it's true, I only want to be with you. You stopped and smiled at me Asked if I'd care to dance. I fell into your open arms And I didn't stand a chance. Now, listen, honey, I just want to be beside you everywhere. As long as we're together, honey, I don't care. 'Cause you started something, oh, can't you see? That ever since we met you've got a hold on me. No matter what you do, I only want to be with you. [INSTRUMENTAL] Oh, you stopped and smiled at me Asked if I'd care to dance I fell into your open arms I didn't stand a chance. Now hear me darling, I just want to be beside you everywhere. As long as we're together, honey, I don't care. 'Cause you started something, oh, can't you see? That ever since we met you've got a hold on me. No matter what you do, I only want to be with you. No matter, no matter what you do, I only want to be with you. |
