Lyrics to the man i love

The Man I Love Lyrics

When the mellow moon begins to beam,
Ev'ry night I dream a little dream,
And of course Prince Charming is the theme,
The he for me.
Although I realize as well as you
It is seldom that a dream comes true,
For/To me it's clear

Some day he'll come along,
The man I love
And he'll be big and strong,
The man I love
And when he comes my way

He'll look at me and smile
I'll understand;
And in a little while,
He'll take my hand;
And though it seems absurd,

Maybe I shall meet him Sunday
Maybe Monday, maybe not;
Still I'm sure to meet him one day

He'll build a little home
Just meant for two,
From which I'll never roam,
Who would - would you?
And so all else above
I'm waiting for the man I love.

The Man I Love by George Gershwin


When the mellow moon begins to beam,

Ev'ry night I dream a little dream,

And of course Prince Charming is the theme,

The he for me.

Although I realize as well as you

It is seldom that a dream comes true,

For/To me it's clear

That he'll appear.

Some day he'll come along,

The man I love

And he'll be big and strong,

The man I love

And when he comes my way

I'll do my best to make him stay.

He'll look at me and smile

I'll understand ;

And in a little while,

He'll take my hand ;

And though it seems absurd,

I know we both won't say a word

Maybe I shall meet him Sunday

Maybe Monday, maybe not ;

Still I'm sure to meet him one day

Maybe Tuesday will be my good news day

He'll build a little home

Just meant for two,

From which I'll never roam,

Who would - would you ?

And so all else above

I'm waiting for the man I love.
