I had a dream that I was happy
It came as such a surprise!
I’d slipped away and suddenly
There it was again.
Love had come in romantic form
Another surprise to me
I don’t expect it to be real
But it was pleasant to imagine.
Joy is fleeting
Though everlasting
Smiles through a window
With no pane
I have a feeling
Life is beginning
Sadness leaving
Time not in vain.
I had a dream that I was free
I laughed and held someone so dear
Not in this life will it come
But in sleep, surprises to appear.
Joy is fleeing
Though everlasting
Smiles through a window
With no pane
I have a feeling
Life is beginning
Sadness leaving
Time not in vain.
