The sheet music:
Lyrics
1. In my dreams you come to me
Like a phantom melody
Now you’re here and with the dawn you’re gone
Dream girl, will you ever be
Mine in all reality?
When can I stop dreaming on and on?
Chorus:
If I should wake and find your arms around me
I know I’ll never have to dream again
If I should wake and feel your lips surrender to mine
I’d just be wasting precious time in dreaming
In all my dreams it seems that you are near, dear
But when I wake you always disappear
If I should wake to hear you say you’ll always remain
That’s when I’ll never have to dream again
2. When the stars begin to peep
On a world that’s fast asleep
I’m with you and you’re with me, sweetheart
Must we always say “Adieu”
When the dawn comes stealing thru
Can’t I have you when my dreams depart?
