Somebody to watch over me

There's a saying old says that love is blind

Still were often told, “Seek and each will find.”

So I'm looking for a certainboy 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 to 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'll carry the key.

Won't you tell him please to put on some speed, follow my lead

Oh, how I need someone who'll watch over me.
