The Girl Of My Dreams
(Playing ~
"Girl of My Dreams")
E ven life did not seen right
U ntil I met you one day.
L ove it was at first sight,
A nd still is what I say.
V ery few I have ever met
I would have to be mine,
R eally I believe my mind's set.
G ot to be only as thine.
I f your heart is as yet
N othing else it can entwine,
I will see that I get,
A nd never more I will pine.
S urely God knows that I love,
P erhaps He alone can understand,
I t's love that comes from above,
V ery innumerable as the sand.
E ven as that of a dove,
Y earning forever for her hand.

It warms my heart to
think of my father,
sometime before 1927,
as a young fellow smitten by love as he composed this
for his future wife, and our mother.
(I have his original copy of this composition.)
