Carmen McRae
The man i love
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
Its so seldom that a dream comes true
To me its clear that he'll appear

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
Then in a little while
He'll take my hand
Although it seems absurd
I know we both won't say a word

Maybe I will meet him on 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 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
