Sweet Sue, Just You
Ella Fitzgerald · Other Songs - Ella Fitzgerald
Knows the one I love
Sweet Sue, just you
And the moon on high
Knows the reason why
Sweet Sue, is you
No one else it seems
Ever shared my dreams
Without you I don't know what I'd do
In this heart of mine
You live all the time
Oh, Sue, just you
Sweet Sue, Just You
