Embraceable You lyrics

Dozens of girls would storm up
I had to lock my door
Somehow I couldn't warm up
To one before

What was it that controlled me
What kept my love life lean
My intuition told me
You'd come on the scene

Lady, listen to the rhythm of my heartbeat
And you'll get just what I mean

Embrace me, my sweet, embraceable you
Embrace me, you, irreplaceable you
Just one look at you, my heart grew tipsy in me
You and you alone bring out the gypsy in me

I love all the many charms about you
Above all I want my arms about
Don't be a naughty baby
Come to papa, come to papa, do

My sweet embraceable you

Sarah Vaughan 1954

from Lady, Be Good!, musical
