The Man I Love - Tina Brooks, Art Blakey, Kenny Burrell

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
