Darn That Dream [from the Musical Swingin' the Dream]
Edgar Eddie Delange, Jimmy Van Heusen
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
Darn that dream
Darn your lips and darn your eyes
They lift me high above the moonlit skies
Then I tumble out of paradise
Oh, darn that dream
Darn that crazy 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 old 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
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
Darn that dream
