Last night as I lay sleeping,
a vision came to me.
It was of you and I, my love,
a wondrous sight to see.

And in the dream I had,
I reached and touched your face
I clasped your hand in mine, my love,
and felt your warm embrace.

I pressed my lips to yours,
to taste your kiss so sweet
you held me for a minute,
in this moment that did fleet.

I wakened from the dream,
with a thought of you that stayed,
But once again I was wrong,
My heart’s desire was never made
