From Lyrics World:

Nice To Be With You

- Artist: Gallery as sung on "Super Hits Of the 70's-Have a Nice Day-Vol. 8"
Rhino R4 709218
- peak Billboard position # 4 in 1972
- Words and Music by Jim Gold

CHORUS


Oh, it's so nice to be with you

I love all the things ya say and do


And it's so nice to hear you say
You're gonna please me in every way
Honey, I got the notion

You're causin' commotion in my soul

Baby, you and me have got somethin' that's real
I know it's gonna last a lifetime
Aww, ya better believe it, girl
At night I call your name
Darkness fills my room, I'm only dreamin'
About the time I'm gonna be with you

CHORUS

<instrumental interlude>

When I'm feelin' down

You're there to pick me up and help me to carry on
Aww, little things mean a lot
When you need a shoulder to cry on
I'm there to ease the pain and chase away the rain
Aww, darlin', I just gotta say

Oh, it's so nice to be with you

I love all the things ya say and do


And it's so nice to hear you say
You're gonna please me in every way

Oh, it's so nice to be with you
I love all the things ya say and do

I've received a few private responses which confirm the following. I still
would like to try and find the lyric, so if anyone has it I'd appreciate
hearing from you. Thanks.

"The group that recorded "Nice To Be With You" was GALLERY who had a top
twenty hit with the tune in the spring of 1972. The band was a sextet out of
Detroit led by lead vocalist Jim Gold. "Nice" was the group's only top 20
hit so there was a never a hits compilation. However, the single may have
been featured on one of the "Have A Nice Day" compilation cds of hits from
the '70's. There's more than a dozen volumes in the series, each released
individually."
