Someone To Watch Over Me Lyrics

Someone To Watch Over Me lyrics

Writers: Gershwin/Gershwin 

 

 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 lad I've had in mind

 Looking everywhere, haven't found him yet

 

 He's the big affair I cannot forget

 Only man I ever think of with regret

 I'd like to add his initial to my monogram

 Tell me, where is the shepherd for this lost lamb?

 

 There's a somebody I'm longing to see

 I hope that he turns out to be

 Someone who'll watch over me

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

 I know I could always be good

 Someone who'll watch over me

 

 Although he may not be the man some

 girls think of as handsome

 To my heart he carries the key

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

 Follow my lead, oh, how I need

 Someone to watch over me
