When He Shines

Lyrics

This man's a child, this man is old Sometimes he's mild, sometimes he's bold This man I love sometimes in spite Of wishing he'd stick to his guns Or abandon the fight But when he shines, oh when he shines When he shines, he shines so bright Sometimes a tramp, sometimes a dude He changes color just like a chameleon Can sense the mood This man's a tune, it's not easy to write This man's a moon in the morning and the sun out at night But when he shines, oh when he shines When he shines, he shines so bright This is a gentle man, this man is strong This temperamental man plays me along But when he shines, yes when he shines When he shines, he shines so bright Darting from shadows into the light This emotional man in perpetual flight Shine, shine, this shining man
