LYRICS BY IRA GERSHWIN
(Music by Jerome Kern)

  1  Long (A) ago (B) and far away (C)
  2  I dream(D)ed a dream (D) one day(C)--
  3  And now that dream (D) is here beside (E) me (F).
  4  Long (A) the skies were overcast, (G)
  5  But now the clouds have passed: (G)
  6  You’re here at last! (G)
  7  Chills run up and down my spine, (H)
  8  Aladdin’s lamp is mine: (H)
  9  The dream (D) I dream(D)ed is not denied (E) me. (F)
10  Just one look and then I knew (I)
11  That all I long(A)ed for long (A) ago (B) was you (I).
