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
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
