lyrics

Take this kiss upon the brow
And, in parting from you now,
Thus much let me avow-
You are not wrong, who deem
That my days have been a dream;
Yet if hope has flown away
In a night, or in a day
In a vision, or in none
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.


I stand amid the roar
Of a surf- tormented shore,
And I hold within my hands
Grains of the golden sand-
Oh how they creep
Through my fingers to the deep,
While I weep-while I weep!
Oh god! can I not grasp
Them with a tighter clasp
Oh god! can I not save
One from the pitiless wave?
Is all that we see or seem
But a dream within a dream?
