Deep In A Dream 1938

I'll always be a dreamer
for I was born that way.
And I was born to love you
keep dreaming of you each day.

I dim all the lights
and I sink in my chair,
The smoke from my cigarette
climbs through the air,
The walls of my room
fade away in the blue
and I'm deep in a dream of you.
The smoke makes a stairway
for you to descend,
you come to my arms,
may this bliss never end,
for we love anew
just as we used to do,
when I'm deep in a dream of you.
Then from the ceiling
sweet music comes stealing,
we glide through the lover's refrain;
you're so appealing
that I'm soon revealing
my love for you over again.
My cigarette burns me
I wake with a start
my hand isn't hurt
but there's pain in my heart.
Awake or asleep
ev'ry mem'ry I'll keep
deep in a dream of you.

I dim all the lights
and I sink in my chair,
The smoke from my cigarette
climbs through the air,
The walls of my room
fade away in the blue
and I'm deep in a dream of you.
The smoke makes a stairway
for you to descend,
you come to my arms,
may this bliss never end,
for we love anew
just as we used to do,
when I'm deep in a dream of you.
Then from the ceiling
sweet music comes stealing,
we glide through the lover's refrain;
you're so appealing
that I'm soon revealing
my love for you over again.
My cigarette burns me
I wake with a start
my hand isn't hurt
but there's pain in my heart.
Awake or asleep
ev'ry mem'ry I'll keep
deep in a dream of you.
