My heart is sad and lonely
For you I sigh, for you dear only
Why haven't you seen it
I'm all for you, body and soul

I spend my days in longin'
And wondering why it's me you're wronging
I tell you I mean it
I'm all for you, body and soul

I can't believe it
It's hard to conceive it
That you turn away romance, oh

Are you pretending?
It looks like the ending
Unless I could have one more chance to prove it, dear

My life, a wreck you're making
You know I'm yours for just the taking
I'd gladly surrender myself to you, body and soul

Are you pretending?
It looks like the ending
Unless I could have one more chance to prove, dear

My life, a wreck you're making
You know I'm yours for just the taking
I'd gladly surrender myself to you, body and soul

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Tony Bennett's "Body and Soul" evokes a sense of melancholic longing and yearning for love. The singer's heart is sad and lonely because they are in love with someone who has not reciprocated their feelings. The lyrics express the singer's deep desire for the person they love and the frustration they feel about not being loved in return. The chorus "I'm all for you body and soul" emphasizes the singer's complete surrender to their love interest.

The second verse of the song reflects the singer's desperation and confusion about why their love interest is not reciprocating their feelings. The lyrics "I can't believe it, it's hard to conceive it, that you turn away romance" express the singer's disbelief at the situation. The phrase "unless I could have one more chance to prove, dear" highlights the singer's pleas for a second chance to prove their love. The final line "I'd gladly surrender myself to you body and soul" once again emphasizes the singer's willingness to give themselves completely to their love interest.

Overall, the lyrics of "Body and Soul" convey a sense of vulnerability and raw emotion. The song captures the pain of unrequited love and the desperation to be loved by the person you cherish.

@jamesgarvey3895

If that's true, then it's kind of 'poetic' that the last note of her entire recorded repertoire was a major 2nd dissonance over a tonic chord, (with none other then Tony Bennett himself holding that tonic!).
You can't teach a person to make those kinds of musical decisions, they have to just... feel it and know how to express it.

I also love Tony's reaction and how he so effortlessly goes with it.
A less experienced singer might have assumed it was a mistake, and stopped singing.

There's a clip of them meeting for 1st time in the studio. She was obviously very nervous and insecure.
Tony, being the reknown gentleman he is, took his time to make her feel at ease.
At one point, she wanted to scrap the session and go home.
Again, Tony helped Amy take baby steps to feel at ease and record the song "just for the hell of it" in his words.
What you see here is the result of prob hours of him getting her to feel at ease.
This is why Tony has the reputation of being one of the nicest guys in the biz. He could carry himself like a big prima donna like Sinatra did in his hey day, but he doesn't.
Amy's remarkable interpretation of this classic again shows her absence is a huge loss for music.
