darn that dream
Darn that dream I dream each night You say you love me and hold me tight But when I awake and you're out of sight Oh, darn that dream  Darn your lips and darn your eyes They lift me high above the moonlit sky Then I tumble out of paradise Oh, darn that dream  Darn that one track mind of mine It can't understand that you don't care Just to change the mood I'm in I'd welcome a nice old nightmare  Darn that dream And bless it too Without that dream I never have you But it haunts me and it won't come true  Oh, darn that dream
