Ella Fitzgerald
Do Nothin’ Till You Hear from Me
[Preamble]
Someone told someone then someone told you
But they wouldn't hurt you that much
Since everyone spreads the story
With his own little personal touch
[Verse 1]
Do nothing till you hear from me
Pay no attention to what's said
Why people tear the seam of anyone's dream
Is over my head
[Verse 2]
Do nothing till you hear from me
At least consider our romance
If you should take the word of others you've heard
I haven't a chance
[Bridge]
True, I've been seen with someone new
But does that mean that I'm untrue?
When we're apart, the words in my heart
Reveal how I feel about you
[Verse 3]
Some kiss may cloud my memory
And other arms may hold a thrill
But please do nothing till you hear it from me
And you never will

[Verse 1]
Do nothing till you hear from me
Pay no attention to what's said
Why people tear the seam of anyone's dream
Is over my head
[Verse 2]
Do nothing till you hear from me
At least consider our romance
If you should take the word of others you've heard
I haven't a chance
[Bridge]
True, I've been seen with someone new
But does that mean that I'm untrue?
When we're apart, the words in my heart
Reveal how I feel about you
[Verse 3]
Some kiss may cloud my memory
And other arms may hold a thrill
But please do nothing till you hear it from me
And you never will
[Verse 3]
Some kiss may cloud my memory
But please do nothing till you hear it from me
And you never will
