(Ace Dinning)
Our source for this song was bluegrass duo Jim and Jesse McReynolds.

lyrics

You’ve left me and gone but my love lingers on
& I just can’t forget you it seems
It’s easy to see you’re not thinking of me
But I’ll see you tonight in my dreams.

CHO: When I lay there sleeping I’m dreaming and scheming
And all of my wishes come true
So sleep come and take me til the songbirds awake me
I’ll see you tonight in my dreams.

You’re glad to be free, you’re not thinking of me
& I know I’m no part of your schemes
But your lips sweet and tender you’ll fondly surrender
When I kiss you tonight in my dreams.

CHO: You’ll be by my side on a cool moonlit ride
While the harvest moon shines thru the trees
I’ll be feeling my best when the sun goes to rest
Cause I’ll see you tonight in my dreams.

I was part of the cast but the play didn’t last
And I’m gone and forgotten it seems
But the thrill I knew then I will know once again
When I see you tonight in my dreams.

CHO: We’ll stroll hand in hand on the soft moonlit sand
While the nightingale sings from above
So sleep come and take me til the songbirds awake me
I’ll see you tonight in my dreams.
