Lover Man - Nat Adderley, Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis, Carmen McRae

I don’t know why, but I’m feeling so sad

I long to try something I’ve never had

Never had no kissin', oh, what I’ve been missin'

Lover man, oh, where can you be

The night is cold and I’m so all alone

I’d give my soul just to call you my own

Got a moon above me, but there’s no one to love me

Lover man, oh, where can you be

I’ve heard it said

That the thrill of romance can be

Like a heavenly dream

I go to bed with a prayer

That you’ll make love to me

Strange as it seems

Someday we’ll meet

And you’ll dry all my tears

Then whisper sweet little things in my ears

Huggin' and a-kissin'

Oh, what I’ve been missin'

Lover man oh where can you be

Oh, what I’ve been missin'

Lover man, oh, where can you be
