Nol Coward — The Dream Is Over

Just because we're lovers Don't let's laugh at fate Often one discovers When it is too late Passion's so uncertain Some unfinished rhyme May bring down the curtain Long before its time I love you so, but the dream is over Days come and go, but the dream is over I've tried to fool myself School myself into believing Our love could still go on But it's gone beyond retieving My hopes were vain, like a fool in clover Never again, for the dream is over
