Girl of My Dreams (At the Village Vanguard) - Junior Mance, Junior Mance Trio

Dear, it seems years since we parted,

Years full of tears and regret;

I’ve been alone broken hearted,

Trying so hard to forget:

Girl of my dreams I love you, honest I do,

You are so sweet,

If I could just hold your charms again in my arms,

Then life would be complete;

Since you’ve been gone dear, life don’t seem the same,

Please come back again.

And after all’s said and done, there’s only one,

Girl of my dreams, it’s you.

It’s strange how life deals you sorrow,

Sunshine and joy always nigh;

We live and learn for tomorrow,

But sometimes the learning comes high:

Girl of my dreams I love you, honest I do,

You are so sweet,

If I could just hold your charms again in my arms,

Then life would be complete;

Since you’ve been gone dear, life don’t seem the same,

Please come back again.

And after all’s said and done, there’s only one,

Girl of my dreams, it’s you.

Girl of my dreams I love you, honest I do,

You are so sweet,

If I could just hold your charms again in my arms,

Then life would be complete;

Since you’ve been gone dear, life don’t seem the same,

Please come back again.

And after all’s said and done, there’s only one,

Girl of my dreams, it’s you.
