Oh, Kay!: Someone To Watch Over Me (Ira Gershwin: Orch. Hilding Anderson)

John McGlinn
Album : Kiri Sings Gershwin

There′s a saying old says that love is blind
Still we′re often told, ″Seek and you shall find″
So I′m going to seek a certain girl I′ve had in mind
Looking everywhere, haven′t found her yet
She′s the big affair I cannot forget
Only girl I ever think of with regret
I′d like to add her initial to my monogram
Tell me, where is the shepherddes for this lost lamb?
There′s a somebody I′m longing to see
I hope that she 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 I may not be the man some
Girls think of as handsome
To her heart I carry the key
Won′t you tell her please to put on some speed
Follow my lead, oh, how I need
Someone who′ll watch over me
There′s a somebody I′m longing to see
I hope that she turns out to be
Someone to watch over me
I′m a little lamb who′s lost in the wood
I know I could always be good
To one who′ll watch over me
Although I may not be the man some
Girls think of as handsome
To her heart I carry the key
Won′t you tell her please to put on some speed
Follow my lead, oh, how I need
Someone to watch over me
