I wonder if love is a dream

D. Forster

I wonder if Love is a rose,

A beautiful blossom divine,

If Love is a rose, may he come

And lie on this sad heart of mine.

I wonder if Love is a bird

With a melody tender and strong,

If Love is a bird, may he come

And sing in my garden his song.

I wonder if Love is a dream,

So steadfast, so wondrous, so true,

That floods v'ry day with fair sunshine and hangs

Golden stars ev'ry night in the blue;

Ah! If Love is a dream, he has come,

For to-night I am dreaming of you!
