There's a somebody Im longing to see
I hope that he turns out to be
Someone wholl watch over me
Im a little lamb whos lost in the wood
I know I could always be good
Someone wholl watch over me

Although he may not be the man some
Girls think of as handsome
To my heart he carries the key
Wont you tell him please to put on some speed
Follow my lead, oh, how I need
Someone to watch over me

There's a saying old says that love is blind
Still were often told, seek and ye shall find
So Im going to seek a certain lad Ive had in mind
Looking everywhere, haven't found him yet

Hes the big affair I cannot forget
Only man I ever think of with regret
Id like to add his initial to my monogram
Tell me, where is the shepherd for this lost lamb? 

There's a somebody Im longing to see
I hope that he turns out to be
Someone wholl watch over me
Im a little lamb whos lost in the wood
I know I could always be good
Someone wholl watch over me

Although he may not be the man some
Girls think of as handsome
To my heart he carries the key
Wont you tell him please to put on some speed
Follow my lead, oh, how I need
Someone to watch over me
