Daydream, why do you haunt me so
Deep in a rosy glow
The face of my love you show
Daydream, I walk along on air
Building a castle there
For me and my love to share
Don't know the time, lordy
I'm in a daze
Sun in the sky, while I moon around, feeling, hazy
Daydream, don't break my reverie
Until I find that he,
Is daydreaming just like me
sax solo
Daydreams, why do you haunt me so
While I'm in this rosy glow
Bring back my love
Bring back my love
Bring back my love
To me
