In the Mission by the Sea by Maurice Winnick Lyrics
[Verse 1]
In my dreams I'm wishing I could be
In the little mission by the sea
Where we heard the organ playing
A moonlight reverie
[Verse 2]
Through the years the moonlight has remained
'Til the mission windows have been stained
With the memory of you, dear
The night you came to me
[Bridge]
Maybe I shall hear once more, dear
The echo of a village choir
Maybe you'll come near once more, dear
And keep alive this flickering fire
[Verse 3]
Maybe then the Angelus will waken
Memories that should never be forsaken
Then we'll meet once more in the moonlight
In the mission by the sea!
In my dreams I'm wishing I could be
In the little mission by the sea
Where we heard the organ playing
A moonlight reverie
[Verse 2]
Through the years the moonlight has remained
'Til the mission windows have been stained
With the memory of you, dear
The night you came to me
[Bridge]
Maybe I shall hear once more, dear
The echo of a village choir
Maybe you'll come near once more, dear
And keep alive this flickering fire
[Verse 3]
Maybe then the Angelus will waken
Memories that should never be forsaken
Then we'll meet once more in the moonlight
In the mission by the sea!
