Do Nothin' Till You Hear From Me Songtext
von Duke Ellington and His Orchestra

Someone told someone and someone told you
But they wouldn′t hurt you, not much
Since every one spreads the story
With his own little personal touch

Do nothin' till you hear from me
Pay no attention to what′s said
Why people tear the seam of anyone's dream
Is over my head

Do nothin' 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?
When 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 nothin′ till you hear from me
And you never will

Do nothin' till you hear from me
Pay no attention to what′s said
Why people tear the seam of anyone's dream
Is over my head

Do nothin' 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?
When 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 nothin′ till you hear from me
And you never will

Some kiss may cloud my memory
But please do nothin' till you hear from me
And you never will
