VERSE 01: I’m dreaming dreams, of days gone by,/A heart that once was true,/Of rosy lips, enchanting smiles,/And eyes of fairest blue/But mem’ry is all that’s left,/Another claims the prize,/Still in my dreams I feel the love,/That once beamed in those eyes. VERSE 02: But dreams come true when faith fails not,/As sunshine follows rain,/And rosy lips, enchanting smiles,/Are mine once more again/And mem’ry’s now reality,/I’ve fairly won the prize,/No cloud can hide the wondrous light,/That now beams in those eyes. CHORUS: Dear heart, are you true to me,/My heart yearns for only thee,/My soul knows no sunshine,/Unless you are mine./Faithful I will always be,/You’re more than the world to me,/Come bring back the sunshine,/Dear, heart. | |
