Tony Bennett and Amy Winehouse – Body and Soul

Tony Bennett and Amy Winehouse – Body and Soul – from Duets II: The Great Performances.

This was Amy’s last recording. When Tony tells the story he chokes up. This woman was a gift from the gods! A voice that was as pure blues as any female voice that ever dared to venture into that special world! Heartbreaking to think of what we lost, what might have been!

Lyrics:
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
And wondering why it’s me 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 just 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 the very taking
I’d gladly surrender myself to you body and soul

Songwriters: Edward Heyman / Robert Sour / John Green / Frank Eyton
