Artist/Band: Jeanette MacDonald
Lyrics for Song: Farewell To Dreams
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Jeanette MacDonald



We dreamed our little dreams


And now we're waking


To love a little more


The joys we miss


We'll smile although are


hearts are breaking


Just whispering this





Must we say farewell to dreams


To our hopes and our golden schemes?


To the lake we roamed


Hand in hand


To the castle's high


You and I have planned.


Day will end, the night will fall


In my dreams I will hear you call


Tell me, heart of mine, Oh tell me,


What am I to do?


Must I say farewell to dreams


and you!





Day will end, the night will fall


In my dreams I will hear you call


Tell me, heart of mine, Oh tell me


What am I to do?


Must I say farewell to dreams


and you!


About Farewell To Dreams

Jeanette MacDonald's "Farewell To Dreams" stands as a defining example of her vocal artistry within the realm of musical theater and Hollywood film. Recorded during the golden age of cinema, the track showcases her signature blend of operatic technique and pop sensibility, characteristic of her collaborations with Nelson Eddy. The song reflects the melancholic themes often explored in her repertoire, capturing the emotional resonance of parting and lost illusions. As a staple of her discography, it remains a testament to her ability to convey deep narrative through melody and voice alone. This recording exemplifies the era's standard for romantic ballads, where vocal clarity and emotional delivery were paramount. MacDonald's performance here is both polished and intimate, highlighting her status as a leading lady of her time. The piece has endured as a classic, frequently appearing in compilations of her greatest hits and serving as a reminder of the enduring appeal of her musical contributions to 20th-century entertainment.
