Something I Dreamed Last Night Songtext
von Helen Merrill

Hot scotch and soda for the gentleman
Brandy for me and make it straight
You say you don′t see any gentleman
Well, that's my lover there
My very own
Pardon me, I′d like to speak to him
Alone

I can't believe
That you're not here with me
To have a laugh
Or share a tear with me

It′s all so wrong
It can′t be right
It must have been something
I dreamed last night

To never see
Your funny face again
To never thrill
To your embrace again


Oh, it's so wrong
It can′t be right
It must have been something
I dreamed last night

Those midnight suppers for two
Those corny duets at dawn
Those crazy moments with you
Don't tell me that they are gone

To never look
Into those eyes again
The sun might just as well
Not rise again

Oh no, no
It can′t be right
It must have been something
I dreamed last night

But there's your empty chair
And there′s your glass untouched
A shadow in the air
Was all my finger clogged


Oh no, it isn't a dream
It's terribly, horribly true
My soul and my body scream
How can I live without you

To go through life
Forever missing you
To know that someone else
Is kissing you

A thought of it chills me
And fills me with fright
No, I wasn′t dreaming
Last night
