near you
George Jones/Tammy Wynette Lyrics

There's just one place for me
Near you

It's like heaven to be
Near you

Times when we're apart
And I can't face my heart

Say you'll never stay

More than just two lips away

If my hours could be spent
Near you

I'd be more than content
Near you

Make my life worthwhile
By telling me that I'll
Spend the rest of my days
Near you

Near you
Near you
Make my life worth while
By telling me that I'll
Spend the rest of my days
Near you

Spend the rest of my days
Near you

Well, yeah, I have, but in the music world it didn't get any better than this. It's tragic how much destruction alcohol and drugs have done in relationships and society as a whole...

You dont truly love a person if you had a few men like Tammy did when George left

A woman a wife cannot tell or make a man or her husband do anything to help his family or the marriage. He has to decide to do things his self.

As far as country music goes for the last couple of decades, till the present, it appears that won’t change. There’s nothing today that even comes close to this song alone. They are & will remain untouchable.

great song. wonderful harmony. so ironic and sad that a once happily married couple could put on such a convincing act of caring, though I sense Tammy truly was feeling love, however nostalgia marred by George's alcoholic behavior during their marriage. Clearly performing live and on tour takes a huge toll on a marriage.

@jimbrent6037

I have been reading the comments and I am truly confused, dont get me wrong i love their music especially George Jones but If Tammy loved George Jones that much why didnt she get him help apart from setting up more concerts etc to make money. She had quite a few men after they split and married two more times so how does a person truly love some one and want more men.
Read Georgette Jones book she also didn't understand why her mum had to have a man in her life.

Poor kids never liked Richy. He was cruel to Tammy. If only she helped George jones with rehab you know stand by your man. She would still be alive
