He will not always say
What you would have him say
But now and then he’ll say
Something wonderful
The thoughtless things he’ll do
Will hurt and worry you
Then all at once he’ll do
Something wonderful
He has a thousand dreams
That won’t come true
You know that he believes in them
And that’s enough for you
You’ll always go along
Defend him when he’s wrong
And tell him when he’s strong
He is wonderful
He’ll always need your love
And so he’ll get your love
A man who needs your love
Must be wonderful
What you would have him say
But now and then he’ll say
Something wonderful
The thoughtless things he’ll do
Will hurt and worry you
Then all at once he’ll do
Something wonderful
He has a thousand dreams
That won’t come true
You know that he believes in them
And that’s enough for you
You’ll always go along
Defend him when he’s wrong
And tell him when he’s strong
He is wonderful
He’ll always need your love
And so he’ll get your love
A man who needs your love
Must be wonderful
