Last night, my dear, the rain was falling
I went to bed so sad and blue
Then I had a dream of you

I dreamed I was strolling in the evening
Underneath the harvest moon
I was thinking about you

And then we met out in the moonlight
The stars were shining in your eyes
But another was there too

"I don't believe you've met my baby"
You looked at her, you looked at me
I wondered who you were taking to

I shook the hand of your stranger
But I was shaking more inside
I was still wondering who

Your arm was resting on her shoulder
You smiled at him, he smiled at you
His eyes were filled with victory

He said "My sister wants to marry"
Then my heart was filled with ease
I knew that you would marry me
