The Man I Love - Sonny Clark

When the mellow moon begins to beam\nEvery night I dream a little dream\nAnd of course Prince Charming is the theme\nThe he, for me.\nAlthough I realize as well as you\nIt is seldom that a dream comes true,\nTo me it’s clear\nThat he’ll appear.\nSome day he’ll come along, the man I love\nAnd he’ll be big and strong, the man I love\nAnd when he comes my way,\nI’ll do my best to make him stay.\nHe’ll look at me and smile, I’ll understand\nAnd in a little while, he’ll take my hand\nAnd though it seems absurd\nI know we both won’t say a word.\nMaybe I shall meet him Sunday,\nMaybe Monday, maybe not\nStill I’m sure to meet him one day\nMaybe Tuesday will be my good news day.
