Billie Holiday

Lover Man

by Billie Holiday
Billie Holiday

Biography:

Billie Holiday (Eleanora Fagan Gough, Philadelphia, PA, April 7, 1915 – New York City, NY, July 17, 1959) was an American jazz singer and songwriter.

Nicknamed Lady Day by her loyal friend and musical partner Lester Young, Holiday was a highly original influence on jazz and pop singing. Her vocal style, strongly inspired by jazz instrumentalists, pioneered a new way of manipulating phrasing and tempo. Above all, she was admired for her deeply personal and intimate approach to singing.

LYRICS

[Verse 1]
I don't know why but I'm feeling so sad
I long to try something I never had
Never had no kissin'
Oh, what you've been missin'
Lover man, oh, where can you be?

[Verse 2]
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?

[Bridge]
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

[Verse 3]
Someday we'll meet and you'll dry all my tears
Then whisper sweet little things in my ear
Hugging and a-kissing
Oh, what I've been missing
Lover man, oh, where can you be?
