I dream of Jean-ie with the light brown hair,
Borne like a va-por on the sum-mer air;
I see her trip-ping
where the bright streams play,
Hap-py as the dais-ies that dance on her way.
Man-y were the wild notes
her mer-ry voice would pour,
Man-y were the blithe birds
that war-bled them o'er:
I dream of Jean-ie with the light brown hair,
Float-ing, like a va-por,
on the soft sum-mer air.
