All My Life - Carmen McRae, Ray Bryant

All my life,

I’ve been waiting for you,

My wonderful one,

I’ve begun,

Living,

All my life.

All my love,

Has been waiting for you,

My life is sublime,

Now that I’m,

Giving,

All my love.

You seem so lovely,

So far above me,

I’m almost afraid to go ga-ga,

But I adore you,

I place before you,

A heart that’s an open book.

All my life,

Hold me close to your heart,

But all else above,

Hold my love,

Darling,

All my life.

…lovely,
