This is a dream Melinda
Just a mirage, so they say
This whole affair they all declare
Was dreamed every step of the way

You're a mere dream, Melinda
Out for a gay little spin
Dealing me lies before my eyes
Of days that never have been

There's no Melinda, they say for sure
But don't go Melinda
I know and you know

That you're no mere dream, Melinda
Gone whеn the dawn gleam is through
You and I know that long ago
Therе was, was you
