Wishful thinking, wistful yearning
Always dreaming, never learning
What I want can never be
Except in my sweet reverie
Royal crowns, pets with wings
Forever love and all such things
I wish that what I dream could be
In more than my sweet reverie
Perfect kisses, rings on hands
Couples walking on black sands
Things like that will never be
Anywhere but sweet reverie
Fantasizing, wishing hard
Never played the highest card
Never can my daydreams be
Thank God for my sweet reverie.
