Eighth song on New York Tendaberry. Clearly a companion piece to the following track, "Sweet Lovin' Baby" - they start with the same chord (or two similar chords) and both mention "the man".


There's a man who loves me when it hurts inside;
There's a man who loves me when my hair is tied...

When my hair is down, when I touch the man,
Lord, I rise to rooftops in his eyes...
And don't you know, now or never, never, never will I roam?

'Cause he's the man...
He's the man who sends me home...
Sends me home...

  • you're SO right. There's nobody else out there that sings with such majesty and depth.

  • @122avis Wish her life could have been as perfect as her songs.. and she was here now to see how everyone still loves her and her beautiful music

  • Gone too soon. Thank you, Laura.

  • Its hard for a bloke like me,but I think she is compelling,hypnotic and intoxicating,most of my tastes are heavy progressive rock,but then I drop my guard and see my vulnerability,as a husband,father and human being,i listen to her with intensity,I love Laura as well

  • I have been married for almost 35 years and this is the best explanation of commitment I have have ever heard.

  • never been affected by any singer as i am by laura,a fan since 66,followed her all over the country.i am heard screaming out"welcome home"at carnegie hall,partly recorded for her "season of lights"album.Bette Midler&Phoebe Snow were there too.a night i will never forget.i listen to her daily on my i-pad.luv to the nyroesque generation

  • Had that man myself, as well as her album

  • Love this song. Love laura nyro  !!!

  • anyone know who she wrote this about?

  • Love this song. Love laura Nyro!!
