Last Night
The day was only half a day
That cold and winter's day in Maine
When I awoke and went away
To try and find somebody gay
Last night I had a dream
Last night I had a dream
Where by the tree
I'll dream tomorrow
Last night I saw a scene
Last night I saw a scene
Where by the tree
I'll see tomorrow
The sky looked sick and tears
Washed down the dead and windy streets
When I was always to be seen
When I was all for years and years
I was always to be seen
What in the world did it mean?
Last night I had a dream
Last night I had a dream
Where by the tree
I'll dream tomorrow
Last night I saw a scene
Last night I saw a scene
Last night I saw a scene
Last night I saw a scene
Where by the tree
I'll see tomorrow
The sky was dead and gone
The sun and moon
And birds had flown
To a world in a world never known
And I walked up and down and yawned
And never found where the birds had gone
I never found where the birds had gone
I never found where the birds had gone
Last night I had a dream
Last night I had a dream
Last night I had a dream
Where by the tree
I'll dream tomorrow
Last night I saw a scene
Last night I saw a scene
Last night I had a dream
The last night I saw a sea, the last night I saw a sea,
the last night I saw a sea, the last night I saw a sea,
I'll see tomorrow.
And I never found where the birds had gone.
