Lyrics Duke Ellington

Duke Ellington

Do Nothin' Till You Hear From Me

Someone told someone and someone told you

But they wouldn't hurt you, not much,

Since every one spreads the story

With his own little personal touch.

Do nothing till you hear from me

Pay no attention to what's said

Why people tear the seam of anyone's dream

Is over my head.

Do nothing till you hear from me

At least consider our romance

If you should take the word of others you've heard

I haven't a change

True I've been seen with someone new

But does that mean that I'm untrue?

When we're a part the words in my heart

Reveal how I feel about you.

Some kiss may cloud my memory

And other arms may hold a thrill

But please do nothing till you hear from me

And you never will.
