A Lovers Lulluby
There was a time when I would dream
In nights with peace, and starry gleam
I’d close my weary eyes and gently drift away
into a sweet and heavenly scene, I lay
I’d say a silent prayer like dreamers do
then fall asleep and dream of you
I’d dream, I’d dream, I’d dream of you
in the dawning light and morning dew
O' to dream a dream to dream a dream
In nights with peace, and starry gleam
I’d dream we’d wander ever hand in hand
down mildest shores of shining sand
I'd await your sweet and tender kiss
And close my eyes and not resist
O' to dream a dream to dream a dream
In nights with peace, and starry gleam
I’d dream we’d wander ever hand in hand
down mildest shores of shining sand
I’d dream, I’d dream, I’d dream of you
in the dawning light and morning dew
O' to dream a dream to dream a dream
In nights with peace, and starry gleam
In my dreams you were only mine
and filled my heart with love sublime
In my dreams, I held you tight
you laid beside me through the night
But just before the morn’ of dawn
I’d awake and find you gone.
I’d dream, I’d dream, I’d dream of you
in the dawning light and morning dew
O' to dream a dream to dream a dream
In nights with peace, and starry gleam
To dream these dreams that seem so real
I love the way they made me feel.
There was a time when I would dream
In nights with peace, and starry gleam
I’d close my weary eyes and gently drift away
into a sweet and heavenly scene,
O' to dream a dream to dream a dream
In nights with peace, and starry gleam
To dream these dreams that seem so real
I love the way they made me feel.
