SOMEONE TO WATCH OVER ME

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 lad I’ve had in mind
Looking everywhere, haven’t found him yet

He’s the big affair I cannot forget
Only man I ever think of with regret
I’d like to add his initial to my monogram
Tell me, where is the shepherd for this lost lamb?

There’s a somebody I’m longing to see
I hope that he 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
Someone who’ll watch over me

Although he may not be the man some
Girls think of as handsome
To my heart he carries the key
Won’t you tell him please to put on some speed
Follow my lead, oh, how I need
Someone to watch over me


When I was a kid, the thought that my father would always be around was a great comfort for me. He was an embodiment of someone who would do anything for his children, be it hard work just to be able to support us.

When I got married, I thought that the responsibility to take care of me was transferred to my husband but I know that father will still always be there for me.

Now that father is gone, I believe that he still watches over me from afar, could be from a different dimension but he is still there watching and praying for me.
