I Want to See You Too (Just One Time)

Skeeter Davis · Here's the Answer (RCA Victor) [1961]

(Don Gibson - Skeeter Davis)



If you would see me just one time

You'd know you own this heart of mine

I never have stopped loving you

Darling I want to see you too.



These lips have kissed no one but you

My empty arms hold no one new

The only love I've known is you

Darling I want to see you too.



Oh, oh, oh, oh, come back to me

And I know you'll see

My ay, ay, ay, my love is true

Darling, I want to see you too.



--- Instrumental ---



I'll just keep waiting patiently

And hope that you'll come back to me

My hungry heart longs just for you

Darling I want to see you too.



Oh, oh, oh, oh, come back to me

And I know you'll see

My ay, ay, ay, my love is true

Darling, I want to see you too...
