"Someone To Watch Over Me (Gershwin Country)" lyrics - MICHAEL FEINSTEIN

[Alison Krauss:]
There's a saying old, says that love is blind
Still, we're often told "seek and ye shall find"
So I'm gonna seek a certain lad I've had in mind

[Michael Feinstein:]
Looking everywhere, haven't found her yet
She's the big affair I cannot forget
Only girl I ever think of with regret

[Alison Krauss:]
There's a somebody I'm longing to see
I hope that he turns out to be
Someone to watch over me

[Michael Feinstein:]
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

[Alison Krauss:]
Although he may not be the man
Some girls think of as handsome
To my heart, he carries the key

[Michael Feinstein & Alison Krauss:]
Won't you tell him please to put on some speed
Follow my lead, oh, how I need
Someone to watch over me

[Instrumental break]

[Michael Feinstein:]
She may be far, she may be nearby
I'm promising hereby
To my heart, she'll carry the key

[Michael Feinstein & Alison Krauss:]
And this world would be like heaven if she
Followed my lead, oh, how I need
Someone to watch over me
Someone to watch over me
