Spend it With You
The Supertones Lyrics

Had an old friend call me up this morning
Received a phone call from an old friend early in the morning

Telling me about how he had changed
The friend shared about how his life had transformed

His life's not the same
The friend's life has undergone a significant positive shift

Warning me about a place
The friend cautioned him about a particular location

So far away from heaven's grace
This place is distant from the benefits of heaven

And how life is no simple game
The friend implied that life is challenging and complex

I thought about it, laughed out loud
He pondered over his friend's advice and laughed at himself

Only fools would dare reject it
He thought that it would be foolish to refuse such guidance

I decided to just accept it
He made up his mind to take his friend's advice

I thought about it and I sang this song
Following his reflection on his friend's counsel, he sang a song

Thought about the day when
He was thinking about a future moment

I'd be singing to you all day long
A day when he would continuously sing for someone

Chorus:
Refers to the repeated part of the song

'Cause I wanna spend it with you
He desires to spend his life around someone else

I wanna live in the service of heaven
He desires to live a life that glorifies heaven

From eternity to forever
He wants to spend his life with someone from now till forever

Got another call from a friend this morning
Received another phone call from a different friend in the morning

Telling me I didn't have to wait
The friend advised him that he need not wait

'Til I walked through the gates
Until he physically walks into a place

That heaven's with me every day
The friend revealed that heaven is available to him every day

And every step along the way
In every part of his journey

I take with me takes
He carries heaven with him wherever he goes

I thought about it, laughed out loud
He thought about his friend's counsel and laughed happily

How much better could this get
He wondered how much more awesome it could be

I've barely even started yet
He has only just begun his journey

I thought about it and I smiled so wide
He reflected on his friend's advice and smiled so broadly

Now I can spend every day walking close to Jesus' side
He can now walk every day beside Jesus

Chorus:
Refers to the repeated part of the song

'Cause I wanna spend it with you
He desires to spend his life around someone else

I wanna wake up and say good morning
He desires to greet someone with a good morning every day

I wanna know in your heart that you're with me
He wants assurance of having someone by his side

Called up my old friend this morning
He phoned his old friend the following morning

Telling him about how I had changed
He updated the friend about his personal changes

My life's just not the same
His life has changed considerably

He thought about it, he laughed out loud
His friend reflected on his advice and laughed out loud

He decided to accept it
His friend resolved to take his advice

He thought about it and said that he
His friend considered his advice and responded

Only wished I didn't wait
His friend only wished he had taken his advice earlier

To call him up and tell him this
He wished that he had called him sooner to share the good news

Chorus:
Refers to the repeated part of the song

'Cause I wanna spend it with you
He desires to spend his life around someone else

I wanna walk streets of gold together
He wants to walk on golden streets with someone

From eternity to forever
From now till forever, he wants to spend his time with someone
