IN MY DREAMS, by                    
First Line: In that far off, mysterious realm which we call dreamland
Last Line: Oh, blessed night, when I can sleep -- and dream -- and see!
Subject(s): Dreams; Fantasy; Life; Sleep; Nightmares


In that far off, mysterious realm which we call dreamland,
Where sometimes things fantastic are -- and sometimes real as life itself, I
gladly stay.
For there the veiling mist which dims my waking eyes is swept away.
Faces of those I loved through all the years, and those not less beloved now,
come to me crystal-clear.
My heart beats high with happiness.
All that made me rich -- books, pictures, trees, flowers, birds, wide views of
Nature's loveliness,
The finest works of God and man, are mine again.
Once more I joy in living.
Oh, blessed night, when I can sleep -- and dream -- and see!
