Lyrics Harry Connick, Jr.

Harry Connick, Jr.

Every Man Should Know

Not every man can build his dream house

Not every man has big words to say

Able men keep this world turnin

For the rest of us making our way

Not every man can write a love song

To sing to the one that he holds so true

There are things a man can try learning

There are things he should know how to do

Every man should know how to love her

Every man should know how to care

Every man should recognize what she’s saying with her eyes

And help with her burdens to bear

Not every man can be the hero

And ride to the sun when he is through

But it’s not the hero returning

At the end of the work day to you

Every man should know how to love her

Every man should know how to care

Every man should recognize what she’s saying with her eyes

And help with her burdens to bear

Sunsets make was for the evening sky

Nighttime makes room for the day

Treasure her love ‘til the day you die

And never give it away

Every man should know how to love her

Every man should know how to care

Every man should recognize what she’s saying with her eyes

And help with her burdens to bear

Oh every man should know how to care
