When I was 14 I would sing this to the girls. God, I was such a mushy kid. But it is a very pretty song. Sung sweetly by a very warm and generous man.

[MrColliboy]

When I am with you darling Sue...I feel on top of the world xxxx

[dmachine01]

this kind of music will never be the same ever again. it was a golden era that has slipped away,and will be very much missed but never forgotten. sweet dreams.

[richiejr75]

@richiejr75 You have a very good musical ear. : ) I have 84 more songs of his....be my guest. : )

[capatga]

Oh ! the lyrics are so profound, its not me trying so hard to make you happy with me ,but I am happy because I am with you , we create our destiny ,These words would be beautiful in a wedding vow, I'am sure many use it. I do hope that Mr.Mathis was talking about himself as well

[jfktwo]

Oh how I love this song and this album; where oh where have the years flown so rapidly, Johnny. God bless your wonderful heart and voice.

[cyncityful]

One of the most beautiful and romantic songs ever written, composed and sung so beautifully by Johnny Mathis. Especially the line, It's not just for what you are yourself that I love you as I do, but for what I am when I am with you." Thanks for posting. I love this song.

[starcrane123]

oh my...this song still gives me a rush..."where angels won't go, i go with no persuasion...." yikes, what a romantic notion.

[gva0917]

A lovely song about love making us more than we thought we could be. The two individuals are better because they are together. How wonderful that is. Thank you for the post.

[unclebone100]

This song features Johnny at his magical best!!! He was at this prime when he recorded it and it fifty-plus years later, it still sounds so sweet! This is an eternal song for lovers and those who hope to find that true love someday since it gives you hope. The arrangement, lyrics and Johnny's gifted and passionate voice all come together like a fine glass of wine! Thanks for the memories, Johnny, and for sharing your musical gift! And thanks for posting!!!!

[strawberrylemonBBF]

the songs these days are really bad compared to the old songs like this!

[ReadMeReadYou]

@strawberrylemonBBF Yes, lyrics that are just so beautiful are hard to find these days.

[MagcialWorldOfMusic]

This song was the flipside to "Come To Me", and it was from "Johnny's Greatest Hits".

[Mavrilon]

So romantic,so beautiful.

[fromthesidelines]

Originally released on Columbia 41082 in February 1958. arranged and conducted by Ray Ellis.

[fatstrat66]

I know I heard this song when I was a kid, but I was too young then to tell it was Johnny's. Your videos (that always tell a story) and all the infos you add with each song and of course that distinctive 'Mathis voice', renewed my interest in his music. Good job as always and thanks again!

[ReadMeReadYou]

@fatstrat66 Thank you so much. You made my day.

[haitiano73]

This has "love and romance" written all over it "so it's not just for what you are yourself that I love you as I do but for what I am when I am with you" that's romantic and Johnny Mathis added his "Mathis magic" to this song

[smartbomb05]

simply beautiful :)

[urCherieAmor]

[Afsahiba]

Angela, I can't believe I am so touched by two songs today that I want to comment in public. Thisone completely defines my "first love " and exactlywhat he meant to me. I was in co llege and learninng with eyes wide o pen what my contemporaries considered "love". I decided for me it was just being in the presense of someonen I loved. afsahiba

Yes, there is a video up by someone else of Johnny singing, "Warm" which is one of my top favorites, as well. Just type it on top in the youtube search. Thanks for coming by.

When I am With You was also recorded on Johnny's 1993 album "The Music Of Johnny Mathis." The melody was written by Benjamin Weisman and the lyrics by Al Stillman

[ReadMeReadYou]

Thanks for adding the composers. I had those but I had others too. Hopefully, these are correct.

[conyelp]

ReadMe, I couldn't find anything on just the title so I did a Google search on the lyrics and those names I posted came up.
