Annette Hanshaw - Body and Soul (1930) (By Johnny Green, Edward Heyman, Robert Sour & Frank Eyton)

Annette Hanshaw
I'm lost in the dark.
Where is the spark for my love?
I'm lost in the night
Holding the light of my love.
The heavens opened and closed.
As well I might have supposed,
And I am left in this abandon
So far removed from all that I have planned on.

My days have grown so lonely
For I have lost my one and only.
My pride has been humbled,
But I am his body and soul.

I was a mere sensation.
My house of cards had no foundation.
Although it has tumbled,
I still am his body and soul.

What lies before me, the future is stormy,
And winter that's grey and old
Unless there's magic,
The end will be tragic
And echo the tale that's been told so often.
My life revolves without him.
What earthly good am I without him?
My castle has crumbled
But I am his body and soul.

My life revolves without him.
Lord knows I'm just no good without him.
My castle has crumbled,
But I am his body and soul.
