George Gershwin - Someone To Watch Over Me lyrics

rate me

There's a saying old says that love is blind

Still we're often told "seek and ye shall find"

So I'm going to seek a certain girl/lad I've had in mind

Looking everywhere, haven't found her yet

She's the big affair I cannot forget

Only girl/man I ever think of with regret

I'd like to add her/him initials to my monogram

Tell me where's the shepherd for this lost lamb

There's a somebody I'm longing to see

I hope that she/he turns out to be

Someone to watch over me

I'm a little lamb who's lost in a wood

I know I could always be good

To one who'll watch over me

Although I/he may not be the man some girls think of

As handsome to my heart

She/he carries the key

Won't you tell her/him please to put on some speed

Follow my lead, oh how I need

Someone to watch over me

Someone to watch over me
