Jerome Kern
Long Ago (and Far Away)
(Verse)
Dreary days are over
Life's a four-leaf clover
Sessions of depression are through
Every hope I longed for long ago comes true
(Chorus)
Long ago and far away
I dreamed a dream one day
And now that dream is here beside me
Once the skies were overcast
But now the clouds have passed
You're here at last
Chills run up and down my spine
Aladdin's lamp is mine
The dream I dreamed was not denied me
Just one look and then I knew
That all I longed for long ago was you
