When He Shines Sheena Easton 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
