Man, That Was A Dream (Monk's Dream)

JON HENDRICKS, THELONIOUS S MONK

Monk's Dream
(as sung by Carmen McRae)

I dreamed of a life that was pure and true.
I dreamed of a job only I could do.
One man beside me, we'd be a team,
Man, that was a dream.

I knew it was music I had to play,
I dreamed when I played, I would play MY way.
Too fast makin' children
Booble and toot,
Dreams, that was a–fute.

All through life, I'd be true,
Fortune would come my way.
Strugglin' n gettin ' by,
Tryin' and never lie,
Meaning exactly what I say

I dreamed I had fame and a life sublime,
I dreamed I made prints of the sands of time.
Smack dab in the spotlight, makin' this wave,
Man, that was my dream.

(Solos)
All through life, I'd be true,

I dreamed I had fame and a life sublime,
I dreamed I made prints of the sands of time.
Smack dab in the spotlight, makin' this wave,
Man, that was my dream. Man, that was my dream.
Man, that was my dream.
