Dreaming of Days, Long Gone By


Dreaming of days … long gone by.
How they never seem to end,
Oh why…. oh why…
Do.. o. .o … I.
Fail to resist.
Am I just a fool … to love like this? Te-el me now!

Dreaming of you with the stars shining bright, so bright above.
Dreaming of you when the sun begins to set, on that long, distant shore.
Dreaming of you be it mor…..ning, noon, or in the night.
I dream of you. You’re near to me, so dear to me, you’ll never know just what you mean……. to-o me…

to me…

to me..

Dreaming of days … passing slowly by.
How they drift upon the wind
Oh why…
Must I…
Persist in this.
I must confess … I must insist. I can’t resist. Please he..lp me now!

Dreaming of you with the moon hanging high, so high above.
As a cloud begins to rise against its face… like some long, lonesome lost dove.
Dreaming of you as the light, shimmers softly off the waves.
I dream of you. You’re near to me, so dear to me, you’ll never know just what you mean…… to..o me…

to me..

to me..

(pause)

Now those dreams, how they fade, they fade away.
Turn to ash, how they go, from bright to grey.
Burning ever, churning ever,
turning ever …
ever from me.

Dreaming of you, being near… so near to me.
As I wait, by the shore, above the sea.

Waiting for you, staying for you, won’t you please come back again to..o me?

Angry waves begin to crash along the shoreline of my mind.
Rolling thunder all around me, bolts of lightning, out of time.
How I wish it all would end so very dreary oh I’m really very weary of my life.

Then the clouds and thunder dissipate, I see beyond the pale.
What appears to be a ship upon the ocean with a sail.
Could it be that ship is really you just piercing through the vail
and coming back at last to me …………….…….and coming back at last to me.

to me..

we’ll see..

And as the sand.. drifts upon.. the shore.
You’ve come again to me, once again, once more.
As I gaze… into..o your eyes.
Stay with me now… for-ever more, ev-ever more!

Now I have you with the stars shining bright, so bright above.
Oh I have you when the sun begins to set, on that long, distant shore.
Oh you’re mine be it mor….ning, noon, or in the night.
I love you so, you’re near to me, so dear to me, you’ll always know just what you mean ……. to..o me…

to me…

you’ll see…
