Bing Crosby

A Man And His Dream

by Bing Crosby

on Movie Hits (1992) Only Forever (1995)

You always stir my imagination
Sometimes it borders on fantasy
And sometimes I find visions flash
Through my mind close to reality

Night, a soft guitar, a hidden lane
A moon and here and there a star
For a man and his dream
Night, a crickets' cry, a whispered word
A kiss and now and then a sigh

For a man and his dream
And their eyes when they meet
Seem to say it's sublime
And their hearts proudly beat

To a tune that is older than time
Night must fade away and yet it leaves a love
So all the world will say
There's a man and his dream

And their eyes when they meet
Seem to say it's sublime
And their hearts proudly beat

To a tune that is older than time
Night must fade away and yet it leaves a love
So all the world will say
There's a man and his dream

My dad was a Bing fan, and his 78's records were always playing in the house. So when about 14 years old, and stirrings of romance were in me, what better ways to enjoy those feelings, than to a background of tracks such as this. Now I'm 78 years old and just watched a film on T.V. depicting A.A.Milne (Christopher Robin fame), when part of the sound track was the this song, and I sang along too (Well, most of the words - after all it was over 60 years ago, and tears were in my eyes)!
