My Reverie

Our love is a dream, but in my reverie I can see that this love was meant for me Only a poor fool never schooled in the whirlpool Of romance could be so cruel as you are to me My dreams are as worthless as tin to me Without you life will never begin to be So love me as I love you in my reverie Make my dream a reality Let's dispense with formality Come to me in my reverie Our love is a dream, but in my reverie I can see that this love was meant for me Only a poor fool never schooled in the whirlpool Of romance could be so cruel as you are to me My dreams are as worthless as tin to me Without you life will never begin to be So love me as I love you in my reverie Make my dream a reality Let's dispense with formality Come to me in my reverie --- My Reverie - Betty Carter
