Looking For A Boy

Looking For A Boy

music by George Gershwin (left)
lyric by Ira Gershwin (right)

If it's true that love affairs are all arranged in Heaven,
My Guardian Angel's holding out on me.
So I'm looking for a boy 'bout five foot six or seven,
And won't be happy till I'm on his knee.
I'll be blue until he comes my way; hope he takes the cue when I'm saying:

I am just a little girl who's looking for a little boy who's looking for a girl to love.
Tell me please, where can he be, the loving he who'll bring to me
The harmony I'm dreaming of?

It'll be goodbye, I know, to my tale of woe when he says, "Hello!"

So, I am just a little girl who's looking for a little boy
Who's looking for a girl to love...
