[1st verse:]
|
The sunbeams have taken their flight
|
The day slowly turned into night
|
All nature's at rest
|
The birds in their nest
|
Sleep on 'neath the moon's silv'ry light
|
The shadows of eve ease my heart
|
For now that we've drifted apart
|
I find joys anew while dreaming of you
|
Dreams that can ne'er come true
|
|
[Refrain:]
|
Dreams, just dreams
|
My beautiful golden dreams
|
It seems my dreams
|
Are missives of sweet consolation
|
Each dream I dream
|
Turns gloom to a bright sunbeam
|
Since the love that I gave
|
Found a grave, all I crave
|
Is dreams, just dreams
|
|
[2nd verse:]
|
I wake with the morning my dear
|
The sun up above shining clear
|
The flowers seem gay to welcome the day
|
A day that will seem like a year
|
My goal is a land so it seems
|
Where night never turns to sunbeams
|
The world I would give to go there and live
|
Live with my golden dreams
|
