(bridge to start)


Please come out of your dreams

Come out of it and come into my arms

Castles in the air, will never get you anywhere

And there's a sentimental boy beside you

Waiting to hear that you care.


While the moonlight is bright, get into it

Make the most of this light

Tell me with a kiss

That's you're as thrilling as you seem

Oh please, come out of your dream.


(bridge to end)


Notes:


Carl Sigman, an American, was a lyricist at heart, but in fact, did

write many song melodies during his career. Amongst them, he often wrote

songs for Glenn Miller and Guy Lombardo. Many of his more recent songs

are instantly recognizable 
IT'S ALL IN THE GAME
MY HEART CRIES FOR YOU
SHANGRI-LA and
WHERE DO I BEGIN


The latter two songs of course are an easy recall for most. The first,

as a reference to the 1937 'Utopia lost' Capra film, 'Lost Horizon'

(book by English writer James Hilton) and the second, the love them from

the 1970s hit film 'Love Story'.


Ruby Newman, an American and a Bostonian, was a big band leader musician

from the 1920s to the 1940s. He often played solo violin in his own

orchestra. He is perhaps most noted for his work,  MY SILENT LOVE

from 1932.  Reportedly, his band often did not contain a trumpet section. 

Newman uniquely substituted strings instead.
