My Dream Sonata

Nat King Cole

4

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.
