Someone to Watch Over Me - Lyrics
(Gershwin)

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
Someone to watch over me!

"Someone to Watch Over Me" is a song composed
by George Gershwin with lyrics by Ira Gershwin from
the musical Oh, Kay! (1926), where it was introduced
by Gertrude Lawrence. It has been performed by
numerous artists since its debut and is a jazz standard
as well as a key work in the Great American Songbook.

Performed in Movies & TV...

There's a Goldmine Of Romantic Music
that is in the process of being LOST
forever. Music written in the first half
of the Last Century offers Romance,
Beauty & Great Lyrics that have a
Happy, Uplifting & Positive Worldview.

The Music in this Ten Minute Video offers
you unrealized Romantic Beauty yet with
a Contemporary Story that your mind
composes as it views the High Definition
Photographs and Captivating Videos!

This Elegant & Enticing Music was first
recorded on 33 1/3 Phonographs, transferred
to Cassette Tape, then C.D.s and finally
to my Computer so the quality is not
paradigmatic.

Perhaps one day, others will discover
this Enchanting Treasure and this music
will become available on the Internet.
Even better would be if new Mantovanis,
Percy Faiths, Norman Luboffs, etc. would
discover and record with a fresh talent
true to the original intent these Romantic
and Rapturous Delights!
