Deep in a Dream - Pepper Adams, Chet Baker

I dim all the lights

And I sink in my chair

The smoke from my cigarette

Climbs through the air

The walls in my room

Fade away in a gloom

And I’m deep in a dream of you

Smoke makes a stairway

For you to descend

You come to my arms

May this bliss never end

We’ll love and move

Just like we used to do

And I’m deep in a dream of you

And from the ceiling

Sweet music comes stealing

We glide through a lover’s refrain

You’re so appealing

And I’m soon revealing

My love for you over again

A cigarette burns me I wake with a start

My hand doesn’t hurt but there’s pain in my heart

Awake or asleep every memory I’ll keep

Deep in a dream of you
