Body and Soul Lyrics


My heart is sad and lonely
For you I sigh, for you dear only
Why haven't you seen it
I'm all for you body and soulI spend my days in longing
And wondering why it's me you're wronging
I tell you I mean it
I'm all for you body and soulI can't believe it
It's hard to conceive it
That you'd turn away romance
Are you pretending
It looks like the ending
Unless I could have just one more chance to prove, dearMy life a wreck you're making
You know I'm yours for just the taking
I'd gladly surrender myself to you body and soul

Earl Rudolph "Bud" Powell (September 27, 1924 – July 31, 1966) was one of the most influential pianists in the history of jazz. Along with Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie he was instrumental in the development of bebop, and his virtuosity as a pianist led many to call him "the Charlie Parker of the piano". Powell was perhaps the first pianist to vocalize on the piano, meaning that he transfered his vocalized improvisations directly through his hands to the instrument. This gave his music a deep connection to time, which is an artifact of the human voice.
