What we don't see doesn't hurt us
What we don't know doesn't pain
And if our faith won't desert us
We'll see the sun thru the rain

Please don't take away my dreams
Throughout all this time
I have dreamt you're mine
Tho' there's someone else, it seems
I belong to you,
faithful, dear, and true
From my side, angry pride tore you
Sorry dear, waiting here for you
If a star of hope still gleams
Darling, while it gleams
Let me have my dreams

Please don't take away my dreams
Throughout all this time
I have dreamt you're mine
Tho' there's someone else, it seems
I belong to you,
faithful, dear, and true
From my side, angry pride tore you
Sorry dear, waiting here for you
If a star of hope still gleams
Darling, while it gleams
Let me have my dreams

You're my ideal since my childhood
You're the one dream that remains
And now I feel as a child would
Through all the gladness and pain

Please don't take away my dreams
Throughout all this time
I have dreamt you're mine
Tho' there's someone else, it seems
I belong to you,
faithful, dear, and true
From my side, angry pride tore you
Sorry dear, waiting here for you
If a star of hope still gleams
Darling, while it gleams
Let me have my dreams

Please don't take away my dreams
Throughout all this time
I have dreamt you're mine
Tho' there's someone else, it seems
I belong to you,
faithful, dear, and true
From my side, angry pride tore you
Sorry dear, waiting here for you
If a star of hope still gleams
Darling, while it gleams
Let me have my dreams
