Lyrics
Last night as I lay dreaming and I dreamt of foreign lands I dreamt that I had met you and you took me by the hand And we walked down by the riverside We watched the waters flow And you told me when you left me you'd never let me go
And we told the truth in whiskey 'til we made the rafters ring We'd laugh and chaff We had a half when the pints had made us sing And when the night was over we'd stagger home to bed We'd wake up in the morning And we'd wonder what we said
We said love lasts forever, I suppose that could be true When I looked into the embers, I thought that I saw you; But an ember's only ashes at the dawning of the day When the mists upon the meadows swiftly rise and drift away There's soldiermen and sailors And there's men of high degree There's tinkermen and tailors, and then there's always me And if you looked upon me, would it seem so very mad That I dreamt of you that evening And the passion that we had And now it all is over and now you're far away And if I heard your voice now I don't know what I would say The shop has long since loaded And it's sailed from the quay But i'll hold you in my arms, love, in the dream of yesterday
