THE MAN I LOVE            E. FITZGERALD



SOMEDAY HE'LL COME ALONE

THE MAN I LOVE

AND HE'LL BE BIG AND STRONG,

THE MAN I LOVE

AND WHEN HE'LL 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.

MY BE I SHALL MEET HIM SATURDAY, MY BE MONDAY, MY BE NOT.

STILL I'M SURE TO MEET HIM MONDAY, MY BE TUESDAY,

WILL BE MY GOOD NEW DAY.

HE'LL BUILD A LITTLE HOME,

JUST MEANT FOR TWO,

FROM WICH I'LL NEVER ROOM,

WHO WOULD YOU AND SO ALL IS ABOVE,

I'M WAITING FOR THE MAN I LOVE.
