Someone to watch over me
There's a saying old says that love is blind
Still were often told, seek and you shall find
So I'm going to seek a certain girl I've had in mind
Looking everywhere, haven't found her yet
She's the big affair I cannot forget
only girl I ever think of with regret
I'd like to add her initial1 to my monogram2
Tell me, where is the shepherdess for this lost lamb?
There's somebody I'm longing3 to see
I hope that she 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
To one who'll watch over me
Although I may not be the man some girls think of as handsome
To her heart I carry the key
Won't you tell her please to put on some speed, follow my lead
Oh, how I need someone who'll watch over me
呵护照顾我的人
俗语有句话说：爱情是盲目的
亦辄说：精诚所至，金石为开！
于此，我要寻觅这一位已然在我心的女生
环顾四周，我尚未寻获她
她是这样的要紧，我没办法忘怀
这唯一令我常常感到遗憾的女生
我欲将她名冠上我的姓
告诉我，引导这迷途羔羊的牧羊女在哪儿
这里有个我欲寻已久的人
我愿她能在我面前出现
一位将会呵护照顾我的人
我是一只迷失在森林中的羔羊
我了解我可以永远温驯
──向那将会呵护照顾我的人
虽然我不是女生心中的白马王子
但我握有她心房之钥
请你告诉她：请加紧脚步，跟随我的引领
噢！我多么渴望有人来呵护我
