The Man I Love lyrics

from the album LITTLE SWAY

written by George & Ira Gershwin, licensed with permission

someday 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'd never roam
who would, would you?
and so all else above
I'm dreaming of the man I love
