Teksty: Perry Como. By The Way.

By the way,
Wasn't that a dream last night?
Seems I barely closed my eyes and you were there . . .
By the way,
And to my complete surprise,
You and I were dancing on a cloud somewhere . . .

I held you in my arms,
The joy of it was thrilling . . .
And then I pleaded for a kiss
And you were willing . . .

And, so we kissed,
Then I heard you say you cared,
By the way, do say it now as you did then,
Or must I wait until I dream again?


< instrumental verse >

And then I pleaded for a kiss
And you were willing . . .

And, so we kissed,
Then I heard you say you cared,
By the way, do say it now as you did then,
Or must I wait until I dream again?
