Lyrics
- Shadows falling, o’er the silv’ry bay
Mem’ries calling me
Dreamboats gliding to that far away land
I long to see
As the bright stars glow, I whisper low
Refrain:
Glide, my Golden Dreamboat, glide with me
Down the silver beams of my baby dreams
Let me hear again that melody
Mammy used to sing to me
Back in Swanee, Swanee, let me rest
With the friends that I love best
Glide, my Golden Dreamboat, glide with me
To that Land of Memory
- Golden Dreamboat, sailing thro’ the night
Let my dreams float there
To that land where visions ever bright
Banish ev’ry care
Down that moonlit trail, just let me sail
Ending:
Golden Dreamboat, glide with me
Down the stream of Memory
