Billie Holiday Lover Man lyrics

I don't know why, but I'm feelin' so sad
I long to try somethin' I never had
Never had no kissin', oh, what I've been missin'
Lover man, oh, where can you be?

The night is cold and I'm so alone
I'd give my soul just to call you my own
Got a moon above me, but no one to love me
Lover man, oh, where can you be?

I've heard it said, that the thrill of romance
Can be like a heavenly dream
I go to bed with a prayer
That you'll make love to me, strange as it seems

Someday we'll meet and you'll dry all my tears

Then whisper sweet, little things in my ears
A-huggin' and a-kissin', oh, what I've been missin'
Lover man, oh, where can you be?

I've heard it said, that the thrill of romance
Can be like a heavenly dream
I go to bed with a prayer
That you'll make love to me, strange as it seems

Someday we'll meet and you'll dry all my tears
Then whisper sweet, little things in my ears
A-huggin' and a-kissin', oh, what I've been missin'
Lover man, oh, where can you be?
