from the film "I'd Rather Be Rich" starring Andy Williams and Sandra Dee
Almost there, we're almost there
How wonderful, wonderful our love will be
For you, for me
We're almost there where we will share
A warm caress, tenderness, a dream come true
For me, for you
Love has waited such a long time
Now we're a kiss apart
Darling, this is the right time
To let the kisses start
For you're almost mine and soon we'll find
Our paradise, paradise so rare
Close your eyes for we're almost there
You're almost mine and soon we'll find
Our paradise, paradise so rare
Close your eyes, close your eyes
Close your eyes for we're almost there
Almo-o-ost there
A-a-almost there
