Natalie Cole

I hear him, before I go to sleep
And focus on the day that's been
I realize he's there
When I turn the light off and turn over

Nobody knows about my man
They think he's lost on some horizon
And suddenly I find myself
Listening to a man I've never known before

Telling me about the sea
All his love, 'til eternity

Ooh, he's here again
The man with the child in his eyes
Ooh, he's here again
The man with the child in his eyes

He's very understanding
And he's so aware of all my situations
And when I stay up late
He's always waiting, but I feel him hesitate

Oh, I'm so worried about my love
They say, "No, no, it won't last forever."
And here I am again, my girl
Wondering what on Earth I'm doing here
Maybe he doesn't love me
I just took a trip...

Ooh, he's here again
The man with the child in his eyes
Oh, he's here again
The man with the child in his eyes

The daughter of jazz legend Nat King Cole, Natalie Marie Cole (February 6, 1950-December 31, 2015) was an R&B icon who was primarily active from 1956 until her death in 2015 due to congestive heart failure at age 65.
