Ray Charles
Just Because
[Verse 1]
Just because you're near
The cold nights grow warmer
Heaven's not so far away
Whisper in my ear
Gentle is the darkness
Keep your secrets here

[Chorus]
Girl then dream on
Then dream on
Dream that all the world's an actor in your play
It can all go your way

Then dream on
Yeah, dream on
Dream that all of this magnificence is yours
It will never slip away

[Verse 2]
Just because you're near
Memories grow fonder
I wonder through them like a child
My arms thrown open wide
Innocent and trusting
Come lay here by my side
[Chorus]
Girl then dream on
Then dream on
Dream that all the world's an actor in your play
It can all go your way

Then dream on
Yeah, dream on
Dream that all of this magnificence is yours
It will never slip away

[Solos]

[Verse 3]
Just because you're near
Nothing seems to matter
Just the softness of your hair
Let it all in here
Gentle is the darkness
Filled with your perfume

[Chorus]
Girl then dream on
Then dream on
Dream that all the world's an actor in your play
It can all go your way
Girl dream on
Hey, dream on
Dream that all of this magnificence is yours
It will never slip away
