Day Dream
Duke Ellington / Billy Strayhorn, 1941
Funny the way that I feel now
Can't keep my feet on the ground
Ev'rything seems unreal now
When you're not around:
Day Dream why do you haunt me so
Deep in a rosy glow, the face of my love you show.
Day Dream, 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.
Day Dream don't break my reverie, until I find that she
Is daydreaming just like me.
