The Man I Love Songtext
von Bob Brookmeyer & Bill Evans

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.


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.
