VERSE 01: Your fame as a Romeo so true,/Made me very anxious to know you,/The gossip spread quickly to various parts,/With tales of this terrible breaker of hearts,/Until your mere name made me tremble,/And I thought that you must resemble,/A Bluebeard ferocious, atrocious to see,/Who stole little girls and would soon steal me./I hope I am not what you thought me,/What my reputation has brought me | |
/I’ve met many girls, as you say I have done,/But I’ve found in each case she was not the right one/And so I would turn to another,/To meet with the same old bother,/But you are the one I have wanted to find,/And yours is the face I have had in mind./That sort of picture only lies/Within the mind and not the eyes./The hazy image that one sees/In solitary reveriesVERSE 02: Your fame as a Juliet charming,/Was simply alluring, alarming,/I heard how you captured the hearts of all men,/How none of them ever could win you and then,/I just couldn’t rest, till I found you/And see why they hovered around you,/And see were you really so artful a one,/Who conquered all hearts and surrendered to none./I hope I am all you expected,/You see I’ve been somewhat neglected,/’Tis true I’ve declined all the men I could find,/But you see I have never yet found the right kind,/And so I should hardly be censured,/Because I have never yet ventured,/To yield a love that did not strike me real,/When I had in mind my own ideal./The sort of one that only lies/Within the mind and not the eyes,/The hazy image that one sees/In solitary reveriesCHORUS: Daydreams,/Visions of bliss,/Dear as the hopes of childhood,/Bright as a sunbeam and brief as a kiss,/Lost in the wakening wildwood./Daydreams, moments divine,/When all so radiant seems,/That is the land where the stars ever shine,/Deep in those dear daydreams. | |
