If My Dream Were True 1907

Last night while sleeping
I dreamt I was weeping,
yes weeping for you my sweetheart fair
and as I slumbered I saw in my vision
your sweet face shining there
and on wings of a dove like form
sent to my aid me thro' life's storm,
cherished then seemed my dream so true
glad I was to be with you.
Then the scheme changed and
your sweet face vanished
borne on wings of an angel to Heaven.
Sad was my heart when I awoke
from my dream,
my soul is weary lonely and dreary
how simply life doth seem,
would that my dream had
never ceased love of you,
my aching heart dear
would turn to joy dear
oh that my dream were true
