The Man I Love
Dreaming of a Love That'll Last: The Man I Love by George Gershwin and Sarah Vaughan
Lyrics
Someday he'll come along
Sometime in the future, a special person will enter my life
The man I love
This person is the man I love
And he'll be big and strong
He will possess physical strength and stature
The man I love
Emphasizing qualities of the man she loves
And when he comes my way
When he approaches me
I'll do my best to make him stay
I will make every effort to keep him in my life
He'll look at me and smile
He will express happiness through a smile
I'll understand
I will comprehend his feelings and intentions
And in a little while
After a short time
He'll take my hand
He will hold my hand, indicating a deeper connection
And though it seems absurd
Despite the situation appearing unlikely
I know we both won't say a word
Both will understand each other without verbal communication
Maybe I will meet him Sunday
Possibly, their first meeting could be on a Sunday
Maybe Monday, maybe not
Or maybe it will happen on a Monday or not at all
Still, I'm sure to meet him one day
Regardless, she is confident of meeting him someday
Maybe Tuesday will be my good news day
Anticipation that Tuesday might bring positive news about their relationship
We'll build a little home
They will create a small dwelling for just the two of them
Just meant for two
A home meant exclusively for their shared life
From which I'll never roam
She envisions a stable and unchanging life within this home
Who would? Would you?
Pondering if anyone would choose to leave such a perfect home
And so all else above
Above all else in her thoughts and desires
I'm dreamin' of
Her dreams are centered around
The man I love
The man she loves
