Lyrics Darn That Dream - Mildred Bailey

Darn that dream, I dream each night
You say you love me and you hold me tight,
But when I awake you're out of sight
Oh, darn that dream.
Darn your lips, and darn your eyes,
They lift me high above the moonlit skies
Then I tumble out of paradise,
Oh, darn that dream.
Darn that one track mind of mine,
It can't understand that you don't care.
Just to change the mood I'm in,
I'd welcome a nice ol' nightmare.
Darn that dream, and bless it too.
Without that dream I never would have you
But it haunts me and it won't come true,
Oh, darn that dream.
