DREAMS WITHIN A DREAM
Dreams Within A Dream
So suddenly a taxi arrived my way
An abrupt end to it , no more time
For a kiss of bless ,
I waited on the walk of the earth ,
I walked alone with emptiness running
In my broken heart ,
Oh how I loved him so ,
He kissed me upon my brow!
And, in parting from me now,
We end just like the raving wind ,
When love touched my heart ,
His kiss caressed at my skin even within ,
Now all I hold within my heart is the
Coldness of the dark ,
My days have been a dream;
Yet all hope has flown away in a night,
My day's are so gray ,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem to see
Is but a dream within a dream.
I hold on to the love I once known ,
I stand on a lonely street in Paris hoping
To find a drink of passion in a cup ,
I hold within my hand ;
Grains of the golden sand and a old wedding band,
Through my fingers to the deep,
While I weep- while I weep over he ,
Oh God I need your love !
I can not grasp the pain in my heart ,
Oh God ! please save me from the pain he gave me
The night he had gone away from me ,
Is all that we see or seem could it all be
A dream within a dream?
