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 girl
i've had in mind

looking everywhere
haven't found her yet

she's the big affair
i cannot forget

only girl i ever
think of with regret

i'd like to add her initial
to my monogram

tell me where's the shepherd
for this lost lamb

there's a somebody
i'm longing to see
i hope that she
turns out to be
someone who'll watch
over me

i'm a little lamb
who's lost in a wood
i know i could
always be good
to one who'll watch
over me

although she may not
the girl some men think of
as handsome to my heart
she carries the key

won't you tell her please to
put on some speed
follow my lead
oh how i need
someone to watch
over me

although she may not
the girl some men think of
as handsome to my heart
she carries the key

won't you tell her please to
put on some speed
follow my lead
oh how i need
someone to watch
over me

someone to watch
over me
