Miles Davis
Darn That Dream (Live at the Royal Rooster, New York, September 18, 1948)
Darn that dream
I dream each night
You say you love me and you hug me tight
But when I awake you're out of sight

Darn your lips, darn your eyes
They lift me high above the moonless skies
Then I tumble out of paradise
Oh, darn that dream

Darn this one track mind of mine
It can't understand that you don't care
Just to change the mood I'm in
I'd welcome a night, a nightmare

Darn that dream
And bless it too
Without that dream, I never would have you
But it hugs me and it won't come true
Oh, darn that dream

Darn this one track mind of mine
It can't understand that you don't care
Just to change the mood I'm in
I'd welcome a night, a nightmare
Darn that dream
And bless it too
Without that dream, I never would have you
But it hugs me and it won't come true
Oh, darn that dream
