A Sentimental Man [Original Broadway Cast Recording]

I am a sentimental man
Who always longed to be a father
That's why I do the best I can
To treat each citizen of Oz as a son
Or daughter

So Elphaba, I'd like to raise you high
'Cause I think everyone deserves the chance to fly

And helping you with your ascent
Allows me to feel so parental
For I am a sentimental man
