MELINDA
Barbra Streisand


This is a dream Melinda 
Just a mirage, so they say 
This whole affair they all declare 
Was dreamed every step of the way 
You're a mere dream, Melinda 
Out for a gaily loose spin 
Telling me lies before my eyes 
of days that never have been 
There's no Melinda, they say for sure 
But don't go Melinda 
I know and you know 
That you're no mere dream, Melinda 
Gone when the dawn gleam is through 
You and I know that long ago 
before the dream there was you 
There was, was you
