Lyrics

Some day he'll come along
The man I love
And he'll be big and strong
The man I love
Then 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
And, though it seems absurd
I know we both won't say
Maybe he'll come someday, one day
Maybe Monday, maybe not
Still, I'm sure that he'll come someday
Maybe Tuesday will be my good news day
We'll build a little home that's meant for two
From which I'll never roam
Who would? Would you?
And so all else above
I'm dreaming of the man I love
Maybe he'll come someday, one day
Maybe Monday, maybe not
Still, I'm sure that he'll come someday
Maybe Tuesday will be my good news day
We'll build a little home that's meant for two
From which I'll never roam
Who would? Would you?
And so all else above
I'm dreaming of the man I love
Written by: George Gershwin, Ira Gershwin
