Body And Soul [E. Heyman, R. Sour, F. Eyton, J. Green] [1930] Songtext
von Louis Armstrong

My heart is sad and lonely
For you I sigh, for you, dear, only
Why haven′t you seen it?
I'm all for you, body & soul
I spend my days in longin′
And wond'ring why it's me
You′re wrongin′, I tell you, I mean it
I'm all for you, body & soul
I can′t believe it, it's hard to conceive it
That you′d turn away romance


Are you pretending? It looks like the ending
Unless I could have one more chance to prove, dear
My life a wreck you're making
You know I′m yours for just the taking
I'd gladly surrender myself to you
Body & soul
My life a wreck you're making
You know I′m yours for just the taking
I would gladly surrender myself to you
Body & soul
