George Gershwin
Someone To Watch Over Me
[Verse 1]
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?

[Chorus 1]
There's a somebody I'm longing to see
I hope that he turns out to be
Someone who watch over me

[Chorus 2]
Like a little lamb who's lost in the wood
I know I could always be good
To the one who'll watch over me

[Bridge]
Although he may not be the man
Some girls think of as handsome
To my heart, he carries the key

[Chorus 3]
Won't you tell him please to put on some speed
Follow my lead
Oh, how I need someone to watch over me
Someone to watch over me
