I'll See You In My Dreams
Moose Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I′ll see you in my dreams,
Hold you in my dreams.
Someone took you out of my arms,
Still I feel the thrill of your charms.

Lips that once were mine,
Tender eyes that shine,
They will light my way tonight,
I'll see you in my dreams.

Now!

I′ll see you in my dreams,
Hold you in my dreams.
Someone took you out of my arms,
Still I feel the thrill of your charms.

Lips that once were mine,
Tender eyes that shine,
They will light my way tonight,
I'll see you in my dreams.

Now!





I'll see you in my dreams,
I′ll see you in my dreams.

on Love on the Dole

DID MY BEST TO FIGURE OUT WHAT HE'S SAYING, LOVE THIS SONG

-----I am now come dancing in?

??? to chase our shadows through the rain

Love on the dole

Choose/(chew?) your soul

Curses come to frost above the wave/way

I'm gonna wave that train away and smile

'Cause it didn't travel farther than 20 miles

Love on the dole

Choose/chew your soul

Couldn't let you see me single file???/signify

Oh wo

When daylight glows/slows don't say that I'm sold x2

Never ??? thought about your mother's death

It's cool she put a price upon my head

Never ago, to choose/chew my soul

??? never makes me happy that you ???

Oh wo

When daylight glows/slows don't say that I'm sold x3-----
