Lyrics The Man I Love - Tina Brooks, Art Blakey, Kenny Burrell

The Man I Love

When the mellow moon begins to beam,
Every 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,
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
