Lyrics
Like the dream you dream tonight
That fades from sight when darkness disappears
Maybe you will vanish, too
The moment when tomorrow’s dawn appears
So, my love while stars above in Heaven’s blue
Are softly gleaming I’ll dream of you
And I’ll live in the glory of your love
When I see the shadows falling
On a purple summer ev’ning
Then is when I hear you calling
Across the lonely years
Oh, how well I still remember
When another summer ev’ning
One that started out in splendor
Ended in tears
Like the dream you dream tonight
That fades from sight when darkness disappears
Maybe you will vanish, too
The moment when tomorrow’s dawn appears
So, my love while stars above in Heaven’s blue
Are softly beaming and gleaming
Then I’ll live in the glory of your love
