When He Shines

This man's a child, this man is old

Sometimes he's mild, sometimes he's bold

This man I love, sometimes in spite

I wish he would stick to his guns, or abandon the fight

But when he shines, oh when he shines

Yes when he shines, he shines so bright

Sometimes a tramp, sometimes a dude

He changes colour just like a cameleon, can't find the mood

He is a song that's not easy to write

He is a moon in the morning, and the sun out at night

But when he shines, when he shines, oh when he shines, he shines so bright

This man's a gentleman, this man is strong

This temperamental man plays me along

But when he shines, when he shines, oh when he shines, he shines so bright

Yes when he shines, when he shines, oh when he shines, he shines so bright

(Instrumental break)

But when he shines, oh when he shines

Yes when he shines, he shines so bright
