I HAVE been dreaming all a summer dayA
Of rare and dainty poems I would writeB
Love lyrics delicate as lilac scentC
Soft idylls woven of wind and flower and streamD
And songs and sonnets carven in fine goldE
The day is fading and the dusk is coldE
Out of the skies has gone the opal gleamD
Out of my heart has passed the high intentC
Into the shadow of the falling nightB
Must all my dreams in darkness pass awayA
-
I have been dreaming all a summer dayA
Shall I go dreaming so until Life s lightB
Fades in Death s dusk and all my days are spentC
Ah what am I the dreamer but a dreamD
The day is fading and the dusk is coldE
-
My songs and sonnets carven in fine goldE
Have faded from me with the last day beamD
That purple lustre to the sea line lentC
And flushed the clouds with rose and chrysoliteC
So days and dreams in darkness pass awayA
-
I have been dreaming all a summer dayA
Of songs and sonnets carven in fine goldC
But all my dreams in darkness pass awayA
The day is fading and the dusk is coldC
