Lyrics Elton John – Someone To Watch Over Me / Love Is Here To Stay

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 girl I’ve had in mind
Looking everywhere, haven’t found her yet

I’d like to add her initial to my monogram
Tell me where’s the shepherd for this lost lamb

There’s a somebody I’m longing to see
I hope that she 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 she may not the girl some men think of
As handsome to my heart
She carries the key

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

It’s very clear our love is here to stay
Not for a year but ever and a day
The radio and the telephone and the movies that we know
May just be passing fancies, and in time may go

But, oh my dear, our love is here to stay
Together we’re going a long, long way
In time the Rockies may crumble
Gibraltar may tumble
They’re only made of clay

Together we’re going a long, long way
In time the Rockies may crumble
Gibraltar may tumble
They’re only made of clay
But our love is here to stay
Our love is here to stay
