You tell me you are leaving you don't love me anymore All my pleading then my ever thought in vain Well I guess you found another or you just got tired of me Then I guess I'll go on dreaming just the same When you hold her in your arms and you smile into her eyes Will you let our past run in your mind again But if you are satisfied with another by your side Then I guess I'll go on dreaming just the same [ steel - fiddle ] If by chance your friends should leave you and you'll wander all alone In my heart I'd gladly take you back again If you're married happily live in wealth and luxury Then I guess I'll go on dreaming just the same After time has told its story and the grey hair streak your hair And no longer in your heart I'm to blame Even after death has called you from this wicked world of sin Then I guess I'll go on dreaming just the same
