Lyrics

[Verse 1]

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 lad I've had in mind

[Verse 2]

Looking everywhere

Haven't found him yet

He's the big affair

I cannot forget

Only man I ever think of with regret

[Verse 3]

I'd like to add his initial to my monogram

Tell me, where is the shepherd for this lost lamb?

[Verse 4]

There's a somebody I'm longing to see

I hope that he

Turns out to be

Someone who'll watch

Over me

[Verse 5]

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

[Verse 6]

Although he may not be the man some

Girls think of as handsome

To my heart he carries the key

[Verse 7]

Won't you tell him please

To put on some speed?

Follow my lead

Oh, how I need

Someone to watch

Over me
