Nice Work If You Can Get It (The musical) - Someone to Watch Over Me Songtexte

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 cenain lad I've had in mind.
Looking ev'rywhere
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
Don't you tell him, please, to put on some speed
Follow my lead? Oh, how I need
Someone to watch over me
