Slim Dusty — Baby of My Dreams lyrics

Lyrics

In visions you’re ever before me, with your teasing
tender smile,
The bridal loom, they dared too soon and love lingered
only a while,
For you I am just going crazy, yes I am upside down it seems,
Oh why sweetheart, are we apart? You’re the baby of my dreams.
Why must you go and leave me so?
And shatter all my schemes
You don’t know why, neither do I,
When you’re the baby of my dreams.
I’ll treasure each one of those letters, and that
photograph of you,
In time to come there may be one that I’ll love as dear
as you,
And then I’ll be thinkin' of someone, yes muh darlin',
of days gone by,
And thoughts will stray back to that day, when we kissed and said «goodbye.»
Why must you go and leave me so?
And shatter all my schemes
You don’t know why, neither do I,
When you’re the baby of my dreams.
Oh, you’re the baby of my dreams.
That’s right.
