Darn That Dream Lyrics - Clark Terry

Darn that dream I dream each night 

You say you love me and you hold me tight 

But when I awake, I find you're out of sight 

Oh, darn that dream 

Darn your lips and darn your eyes 

They lift me high above the moonlight skies 

Then I tumble out of paradise 

Oh, darn that dream 

Darn that one-track mind of mine 

I can't understand that you don't care 

Just to change the mood I'm in 

Lord, I'd welcome a nice old nightmare 

Darn that dream and bless it too 

Without that dream, I never would have you 

But it haunts me 'cause it won't come true 

Oh, darn that dream 

Oh, darn that dream
