The Man I Love by George Gershwin Lyrics

(Verse)
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

(Chorus)
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 dreaming of the man I love

(Instrumental break)

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 dreaming of the man I love
