AS I GO FORTH INTO DREAMS (SO I GO FORTH INTO MERRY OLD ENGLAND)

Download the sheet music.

When a man drifts off to sleep, he lazes on his pillow
Having fastened all the doors and doused the lights
Then strands of swaying dreams, silent as a willow
Come writhing in the wrinkles of the night

As I go forth into dreams
So I go forth into merry old england
As I give my nights up to chance
So I give my nights to the beaches of france

When a man falls in love he thinks of nothing other
Than the lips of his beloved on his cheek
He stays steady by her side, down paths all primrose smothered
Beguiled by her beauty and mystique

As I go forth into love
So I go forth into merry old england
As I give my heart up to romance
So I give my heart to the beaches of france

When a man's about to die he makes peace with his maker
Confessing every trespass, sin and lie
Having proved he is contrite, he then begs the undertaker
For a moment to bid all this world goodbye
