SO HELP ME

Mildred Bailey



So help me, may I never see the moon on high

May I never see the stars close by

So help me, if I don't love you

So help me, may I never know a breath of spring

May I never hear the birds that sing

So help me, if I don't love you

And if I lie then rain should fall

From heave, and blight each day with its teeming

Night should never bring sleep

With its dreaming, sweet dreaming

So help me, may I never see the sight of you

And without you what am I to do

So help me, if you don't love me
