Lyrics for Song: Body and Soul
Lyrics for Album: The Album Collection [2012]
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
Wondering why it's me that 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 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 just the very taking
I'd gladly surrender myself to you
Body and soul

Body and Soul
Tony Bennett's rendition of the jazz standard "Body and Soul" stands as a testament to his enduring mastery of the Great American Songbook. Recorded during a period where his phrasing and emotional depth defined an era, this performance captures the intimate vulnerability characteristic of his style. The song, a cornerstone of the jazz repertoire, allows Bennett to showcase his signature warmth and precise enunciation without relying on theatrical excess. As part of a vast discography that spans decades, this recording highlights his ability to reinterpret classic material with fresh sincerity. The track remains a vital song in his catalogue, reflecting the timeless appeal of sophisticated pop and jazz fusion that cemented his status as a premier vocalist. |
