Love Poem: Come Back Sweet Dream

Come Back Sweet Dream


Memories drifting in the dark of night;
   coming in the silence of a sweet dream;
 sad fascination, yet I feel delight
   travelling on a moonbeam;
      but I have tears,
tears, tears for all the lost unfinished years.

Dream, dream, dream, so bittersweet;
   for this precious gift what will be my price;
and in forests lush green the loved I meet
   on a path in paradise;
      beside a stream,
till' it fades, fades. O, come back sweet dream !
