A Dream Within A Dream (1987 Remix)

For my own part
I have never had a thought which
I could not set down in words
With even more distinctness than
That which I conceived it
There is  however
A class of fancies
Of exquisite delicacy  which are not thoughts
And to which as yet
I have found it absolutely impossible
To adapt to language
These fancies arise in the soul
Alas  how rarely
Only at epochs of most intense tranquility
When the bodily and mental health are in perfection
And at those mere points of time
Where the confines of the waking world blend
With the world of dreams
And so I captured this fancy
Where all that we see or seem is
But a dream within a dream
