0:00All that we see or seem
1:27Is but a dream within a dream
1:35Take this kiss upon the brow
1:42And in parting from you now
1:46This much let me avow
1:52You are not wrong who deemed
2:02That my days have been a dream
2:35Yet if hope has flown away
2:41In a night
2:44In a day
2:47In a vision
2:59Or a memory
3:01Is it therefore the less gone
3:09All that we see or seem
3:13Is but a dream within a dream
3:15I stand amid the roar
3:36Of the surf tormented shore
3:57And I hold within my hands
6:13Grains of golden sand
6:19How few yet how they creep
6:23Through my fingers to the deep
6:28While I weep
6:33While I weep
6:39Oh god can I not grasp them with a tighter clasp
7:18Oh god can I not save one from the pitiless wave
7:36Is all that we see or seem
7:58But a dream within a dream
All that we see or seem Is but a dream within a dream Take this kiss upon the brow And in parting from you now This much let me avow You are not wrong who deemed That my days have been a dream Yet if hope has flown away In a night In a day In a vision Or a memory Is it therefore the less gone All that we see or seem Is but a dream within a dream I stand amid the roar Of the surf tormented shore And I hold within my hands Grains of golden sand How few yet how they creep Through my fingers to the deep While I weep While I weep Oh god can I not grasp them with a tighter clasp Oh god can I not save one from the pitiless wave Is all that we see or seem But a dream within a dream
