My Steady Dream Eddie Noack

[Verse]
Just got her first letter since she went away
It seems like forever, not just yesterday
Guess they didn't know that a young hunk can pray
They said they did it for our sake (our sake)
Her first letter says, "I miss you, my dear
Feeling so lonely, wish you were here
Mom's in the hallway and I'm not supposed to write
My steady dream, goodnight"
"Too serious", "too young", I heard her folks say
She'll find someone new if we move her away
Now she's gone and it seems
All I have left is my steady dream
I still remember our very last date
She cried when she told me, "My darling, I'll wait"
Now it's way past ten, so I'll turn out the light
My steady dream, goodnight

[Interlude]

[Outro Verse]
I still remember our very last date
She cried when she told me, "My darling, I'll wait"
Now it's way past ten, so I'll turn out the light
My steady dream, goodnight (goodnight)
