Look Me Over Closely - Marlene Dietrich

Look me over closely

Tell me what you see

The lady likes to look her best

Before she pours the tea

You see a diamond-studded gown

That makes the evening sun go down

Oh look me over closely

Tell me what you find

But don't get over-anxious

I'm not the marrying kind

I'm a port in a storm

You'll harbor where it's warm

In my arms you will hide

From the great big world outside

Oh but when you come to see me

Don't try to change my ways

You'll have a part within my heart

And that we'll always stay

There's room for all

Love for all

But please don't blame me

If you fall

Over look me over closely

And then make up your mind

But darling please remember this:

I'm holding you before we kiss

So look me over closely

Because I may be the marrying kind

Because I may be the marrying kind

Because I may be the marrying kind
