Bright the light through my window pane Shield my eyes from the beam Keep the day from my aching brain I had a dream Walked me down to the town last night Sat me down by the stream As i dozed in the fading light I had a dream Saw a man and i saw you there Swear you looked like a queen In your eyes as he touched your hair You had a dream I had a dream I had a dream Who could care, who would sympathise Should someone come in between It could be that i'll realise I had a dream Would i dare ask the truth of you If t'were real what i've seen Were you there? if i only knew That i had a dream I had a dream I had a dream
