Someone to Watch over Me / My Old Flame - Zoot Sims, Bob Brookmeyer, Джордж Гершвин

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 inital

To my monogram

Tell me Where is the shepherd

For this lost lamb?

There’s a somebody

I’m longin' to see

I hope that he 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 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 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
