Someone To Watch Over Me — Linda Ronstadt

written by George and Ira Gershwin © 1926 WB Music Corp (ASCAP) copyright renewed

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

There's a somebody I'm longing to see I hope that he 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 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 Someone to watch over me
