"I Only Want To Be With You," written by Mike Hawker and Ivor Raymonde, was Dusty Springfield's first solo entry onto the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1964 and rose to the no. 12 position on the chart; The Bay City Rollers' version was released in 1976 and tied with Springfield's chart position, no. 12, on the chart; then in 1982, Samantha Fox's version stalled at the no. 31 slot on the chart (Whitburn, 2013). Springfield's version "became the first hit by a British artist since The Beatles started their run" (songfacts, 2024).
Lyrics:
I don't know what it is that makes me love you so
I only know I never want to let you go
'Cause you started something
Oh, can't you see
Ever since we met you've had a hold on me
It happens to be true
I only want to be with you
It doesn't matter where you go or what you do
I want to spend each moment of the day with you
Look what has happened with just one kiss
I never knew that I could be in love like this
It's crazy but it's true
I only want to be with you
You stopped you smiled at me
And asked me if I cared to dance
I fell into your open arms
I didn't stand a chance
Now listen honey
I just want to be beside you everywhere
As long as we're together honey I don't care
'Cause you started something
Oh, can't you see
Ever since we met you've had a hold on me
It's crazy but it's true
I only want to be with you
It's crazy but it's true
I only want be with you
You stopped you smiled at me
And asked me if I cared to dance
I fell into your open arms
I didn't stand a chance
Now listen honey
I just want to be beside you everywhere
As long as we're together honey I don't care
'Cause look what has happened after just one kiss
I never thought that I could be in love like this
It's crazy but it's true
I only want to be with you
No matter what you do
I only want to be with you
It's crazy but it's true
