Lyrics
I could spend my time in grieving
When I’m not with you
But I find that make believing
Sort of sees me through
I don’t wait for dreams until the night
Even in the rosy morning light
Burthen
You are oh, so close to me
I hold you tenderly
And hear you say, “I love you”
Then I find that I’m only day dreaming
But I don’t mind if I’m only day dreaming
If dreams can bring so near to me
The things so dear to me
The lips that say, I love you”
Then I know that I’ll go on day dreaming
Until my day dreams all come true
