I Couldn't Stay Away From You Songtext
von Ella Fitzgerald

We quarreled and said it′s all off
And we agreed to call off
Everything we had planned for two
I told myself I'd never come back
But I couldn′t stay away from you

I started to feel so lonely
Waited for you to phone me
Just as you always used to do
And sitting by the phone, I knew, dear
That I couldn't stay away from you


Somewhere, a radio was playing
Our favorite song
It sounded as though the tune kept saying
Go back into his or her arms where you belong

And so I gave up pretending
Oh, what a happy ending
When you confessed you missed me too
And now we'll always be together
′Cause I couldn′t stay away from you

I know we'll always be together
We′ll be happy, living our dreams
So happy, baby and me
I couldn't stay away, away from you
