Wasn’t sure about the title. Not the one I was thinking about. 1st stanza: “If I could be with you one hour tonite; and I were free to do the things I might; I’m telling you true, I’d be anything but blue; If I could be with you.” (The Mills Bros., maybe? Long time ago).

Turns out, “If I Could Be With You” was recorded by many biggies; Bing, Ella, Perry and Frank, Basie, to name a few. Written in 1926. Wow! It was already nearly 25 years old when I first heard it.

The hit version, by a Los Angeles group, from the spring of '32. This has a slower tempo and a vocal refrain.
