My heart is sad an' lonely
for you I sigh, for you dear only,
why haven't you seen it?
I'm all for you, body an' soul!
I spent my days in longing
and wondering why it's me you're wronging?
I tell you I mean it
I'm all for you, body an' soul!
I can't believe it, it's hard to concede it
that you turn away romance
are you pretending, it looks like the ending
unless I could have one more chance
to prove dear . . .
My life a wreck you're making
you know I'm yours for just the taking
I'd gladly surrender myself to you
body an' soul!
< instrumental break >
My life a wreck you're making
you know I'm yours for just the taking
I'd gladly surrender myself to you
body an' soul!
