I was gonna see the world one day
Maybe be a movie star
Or buy a quiet house, down by the bay
And write about the way things are
But the way things are right now
I can hardly write my name
And Ive lost my taste for the wanderin ways
For fortune and for fame
Darlin all I want to do is be with you
Twenty four hours a day
All the other dreams Ive had
Have faded away
Darlin all I want to do is be with you
Twenty four hours a day
If you want to be with me
Then heres where Ill stay
I was gonna save the human race
Find my place in history
Or sail away one day far out in space
And live a life of mystery
But the mystery to me
Is the life Ive lived before
And the place for me isnt history
Its with you forever more
Darlin all I want to do is be with you
Twenty four hours a day
All the other dreams Ive had
Have faded away
Darlin all I want to do is be with you
Twenty four hours a day
If you want to be with me
Then heres where Ill stay
