Body and Soul Lyrics


My heart is sad and lonely
For you I pine, for you dear only
Why haven`t you seen it?
I`m all for you, body and soul
I 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 soul
I 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 can have
Just one more chance, dear
My life a wreck you`re making
My heart is yours for just the taking

I`ll gladly surrender
Myself to you, body and soul

Carmen Mercedes McRae (1920-1994) was a U.S. jazz singer, songwriter, and pianist. McRae was born in Harlem, New York, on the 8th April 1920, and studied piano as a child. As a teenager she came to the attention of Teddy Wilson and his wife, the composer Irene Kitchings Wilson. Through their influence, one of McRae’s early songs, "Dream of Life", was recorded by Wilson’s longtime collaborator Billie Holiday.
