Dorothy Kirsten (1951)
- Long Ago and Far Away (Gershwin& Kern)


Long Ago (and Far Away)
Movie: Cover Girl (1944)
Music: Jerome Kern
Words: Ira Gershwin

Long ago and far away, I dreamed a dream one day
And now that dream is here beside me
Long the skies were overcast but now the clouds have passed
You're here at last

Chills run up and down my spine, Aladdin's lamp is mine
The dream I dreamed was not denied me
Just one look and then I knew
That all I longed for long ago was you

[Orchestral Interlude and Chorus]
Long the skies were overcast but now the clouds have passed
You're here at last

Chills run up and down my spine, Aladdin's lamp is mine
The dream I dreamed was not denied me
Just one look and then I knew
That all I longed for long ago was you
