(Duke Ellington - Bob Russell)


Do nothing till you hear from me,

Pay no attention to what's said

Why one should tear the seam

Of anyone's dream

Is over my head

Do nothing till you hear from me,

At least consider our romance

If you should take the word

Of others you've heard

I haven't a chance


True, I've been seen with someone new

But does that mean that I'm untrue?

While we're apart,

The words in my heart

Reveal how I feel about you


Some kiss may cloud my memory

And other arms may hold a thrill

But please do nothing

Till you hear it from me

And you never will
