Last night as I lay sleeping
I dreamed a dream so fair
I dreamed about my darling
A rose was in her hair
I dreamed I left this prison
Started in life anew
She told me that she loved me
Told me her love was true
It was only a dream just a prisoner's dream
As I lay on my cold prison bed
My dreams of you can never come true
Dear girl, I wish that I was dead
I dreamed she called me darling
Kissed me and held me tight
I dreamed that we were married
Dreamed of a starry night
I dreamed about our children
Playing around my knee
They loved me, called me daddy
They thought the world of me
It was only a dream just a prisoner's dream
As I lay on my cold prison bed
My dreams of you can never come true
Dear girl, I wish that I was dead
I dreamed a dream so lovely
Heaven on earth it seemed
My wife and little children
Came to me in my dreams
They threw their arms around me
I was their pride and joy
My little wife she loved me
I was her darling boy
It was only a dream just a prisoner's dream
As I lay on my cold prison bed
My dreams of you can never come true
Dear girl,I wish that I was dead
