Someone to Watch over Me Lyrics

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 mindLooking everywhere
Haven't found him yet
He's the big affair
I cannot forget
Only man I ever think
Of with regretI'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 longin' to see

I hope that he turns
Out to be
Someone to watch over meI'm a little lamb
Who's lost in the wood
I know I could
Always be good
To one
Who'll watch over meAlthough he may
Not be the man some
Girls think
Of as handsome
To my heart
He carries the keyWon't you tell him please
To put on some speed
Follow my lead
Oh, how I need
Someone to watch over meWon'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
