There's a somebody I'm longing to see
I hope that he turns out to be
Someone who'll 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 may think of as handsome
To my heart he carries the key

Won't you tell him, please, to put on some speed
Follow my lead, oh, how I need
Someone to watch over me

To my heart he carries the key

Won't you tell him please to put on some speed
Follow my lead, oh, how I need
Someone to watch over me
Need someone to watch over me
