Betty Carter - At The Village Vanguard

Body And Soul

My heart is sad and lonely
For you, I sigh, for you, dear, only
Why haven't you seen it
I'm for you, body and soul

I'll spend my days just longing
I'm wondering why it's me you're wronging
I tell you I mean it
I'm for you, body and soul

I can't believe
It's so hard to conceive
That you turned away my romance
Are you pretending
It looks like the ending
Unless I can have one more chance to prove, dear

My life is a wreck you're making
You know I'm yours just for the taking
I'd gladly surrender myself, my body

I can't believe it
Had to conceive it
That you turned away my romance
Are you pretending
It looks like the ending
Unless, oh, unless I can have one more chance to prove, dear

My life's a wreck you're making
You know I'm yours
So please just take me
I'd gladly surrender myself, my body, and
