My Dream Sonata - Nat King Cole

My dream sonata is the music I hear
Each night when all the world is deep in slumber
And in my dreams, my darling, you appear.
While the music's playing, I hear you say,
"I love you! I love you!"

My dream sonata has the beauty of prayer,
A prayer my lonely heart has set to music
That when I wake, my darling, you'll be there.
But when I awaken, you're gone, it seems.
Like my sonata, you are only in my dreams.

(Instrumental interlude and pick up.)

My dream sonata has the beauty of prayer,
A prayer my lonely heart as set to music
That when I wake, my darling, you'll be there.
But when I awaken, you're gone, it seems.
Like my sonata, you are only in my dreams.
