I Will Dream

Lyrics

In my imagination
 You are my dear companion
 And I'm the one you cling to
 And your voice still calls my voice
 Before your heart began to wander
 And mine was torn asunder
 Before the fairer and the younger
 Before the cryin game
 All those girls with their long tresses
 Waltzing out in their Sunday dresses
 All their sweet soft warm caresses
 Cannot hold you like I do
 And though you say you do not love me
 And your dreams are never of me
 I will dream my dream of you.
 In my dreams you are the swallow
 Coming back to Capistrano
 And I'm the sound of the bells you follow
 But in this world dreams don't come true
 Still when you're lost out in the desert
 When your fire's a dying ember
 The last light you remember
 Will be the light I shed for you
 Mine is no ordinary star love
 I see exactly where you are love
 And no else could shine that far love
 To bring you saftely through
 And though you say you do not want me
 And made no promises to haunt me
 I will dream my dream of you.
 The sorrows flow down like a fountain
 Over the miles beyond our countin'
 More than the flowers of the mountain
 Or the raindrops in the sea
 But if Heaven's just a dreaming
 Surely my love will be redeeming
 And you will dream your dream of me...
