Aug 18th 1948


By the way, wasn't that a dream last night!
Seems I barely closed my eyes and you were there!
By the way, and to my complete surprise,
You and I were dancing on a cloud somewhere.

I held you in my arms, the joy of it was thrilling,
And then I pleaded for a kiss and you were willing;
And so we kissed, then I heard you say you cared.
By the way, do say it now as you did then,
Or must I wait until I dream again?

And so we kissed, then I heard you say you cared.
By the way, do say it now as you did then,
Or must I wait until I dream again?
