  • Darn that dream, I dream each night
    You say you love me and you hold me tight
    But when I awake, you're out of sight
    Oh, darn that dream

    Darn your lips, darn your eyes
    They lift me high above the starry skies
    Then I tumble out of paradise
    Oh, darn that dream

    Darn this one track mind of mine
    It can't understand that you don't care
    Just to change the mood I'm in
    I'd welcome a nice ol' nightmare

    Darn that dream and bless it, too
    Without that dream, I never would have you
    But it haunts me and it won't come true
    Oh, darn that dream

    Darn that dream and bless it, too
    Without that dream, I never would have you
    But it haunts me and it won't come true
    Oh, darn that dream Writer/s: Edgar Eddie Delange, Jimmy Van Heusen
