A DREAM, by                    
First Line: We two went, hand in hand, dear love
Last Line: And only me for you.
Subject(s): Dreams; Love; Seasons; Nightmares


We two went, hand in hand, dear love,
Among the flowering trees
Where peach- and apple-blossoms call
With every scented breeze;
We two, just we, and hand in hand
We loved each fragrant tree,
With only me for you, dear love,
And only you for me.

We two went, hand in hand, dear love,
Down through the mystic pines
Where little summer zephyrs blew
Among the clambering vines;
We two, just we, and hand in hand
We roamed the woodland through,
With only you for me, dear love,
And only me for you.

We two went, hand in hand, dear love,
Across the wind-swept lea
Where little autumn breezes blew
From tree to distant tree.
We two, just we, and hand in hand
We roamed the meadow free
With only me for you, dear love,
And only you for me.

We two went, hand in hand, dear love,
And climbed the distant hill
Where snow lay white, and ice had stopped
The murmuring of the rill.
We two, just we, and hand in hand
We raced where cold winds blew,
With only you for me, dear love,
And only me for you.
