Lyrics for Body and Soul - Take 1

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 and soul I spend my days in longing And wondering why it's me you're wronging I tell you I mean it I'm all 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 It looks like the ending Unless I could have just 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 and soul My life a wreck you're making You know I'm yours for the very taking I'd gladly surrender myself to you body and soul
