Body And Soul Songtext
von Carmen McRae

My heart is sad and lonely
For I have lost my one and only
Why haven′t you seen it?
I'm all for you, body and soul

I spend my days in longing
And wondering why it′s me you're wronging
I tell you, I mean it
I am for you, body and soul


I can't believe it, it′s hard to conceive it
That you′d turn away romance
Are you pretending, or is this the ending?
Please, please give me one more chance to prove, dear

My life, a hell you're making
You know I′m yours for just the taking
I gladly surrender myself to you
Hmm, body and soul

What lies before me? A future looks stormy
A winter that's gray and cold
Unless there′s magic, the end will be tragic
An echo (an echo) a tale that's been told so often


My life revolves about you
What earthly good am I without you?
I gladly surrender myself to you
Body and soul
