My Dreams - 1893 - F. P. Tosti

James Pitt-Payne, London and Ian Cousins, Opera Australia

I dream of the day I met you,
I dream of the light divine
That shone in your tender eyes, love,
When first they looked in mine.
I dream of the flow'rs that made me
A path for my longing feet,
I dream of the star that led me
To your chamber window sweet,
To your chamber window sweet.
I dream of the words you whisper'd
In the hush of that magic hour,
With your eyes like the stars above me,
And your heart like an opening flow'r
I dream of the rose you gave me,
I think of our last farewell;
I dream of the silent longing
That only the heart can tell,
That only the heart can tell.
Alas! Alas!
I have lost my star
In a world of glaring light,
And only a few poor ashes
Remain of my rose tonight;
But I dream of my rose
And my star and you
And whether we part or meet
I shall love you the same for ever,
I shall love you the same for ever
As long as my heart may beat.
