Make the Man Love Me by Maureen McGovern Lyrics

You kissed me once by mistake
Thought I was somebody else
I felt that kiss and I envied
That somebody else
I wanted you for myself
I guess I was shameless and bold
But I made a plan in my heart
I've never breathed, I've never told

I must try to make the man love me
Make the man love me now
Bye and bye, I'll make the man happy
I know how

He must see how badly I want him
Want him just as he is
May I say that should the man ask me
I'll be his

Can I tell the man
Just how dearly blessed we would be?
All the beauty I see so clearly
Oh, why can't he?
So, I pray to heaven above me
Pray until day grows dim
For a way to make the man love me
As I love him

For a way to make the man love me
As I love him
