(James Monaco / Johnny Burke)
Al Bowlly acc. by Orchestra conducted by Ronnie Munro
You always stir my imagination
Sometimes it borders on fantasy
And sometimes I find
Visions flash through my mind
Close to reality
Night, a soft guitar
A hidden lane, a moon
And here and there a star
For a man and his dream
Night, a cricket's cry
A whispered word, a kiss
And now and then a sigh
For a man and his dream
And their eyes when they meet
Seem to say, "It's sublime"
And their hearts proudly beat
To a tune that is older than time
Night must fade away
And yet it leaves a love
So the world will say
"There's a man and his dream"
And their eyes when they meet
Seem to say, "It's sublime"
And their hearts proudly beat
To a tune that is older than time
Night must fade away
And yet it leaves a love
So the world will say
"There's a man and his dream"
