I'm dreaming dreams, I'm scheming schemes I'm building castles high They're born anew, their days are few Just like a sweet butterfly And as the daylight is dawning They come again in the morning I'm forever blowing bubbles Pretty bubbles in the air They fly so high Nearly reach the sky Then like my dreams they fade and die Fortune's always hiding I've looked ev'rywhere I'm forever blowing bubbles Pretty bubbles in the air When shadows creep, when I'm asleep To lands of hope I stray Then at daybreak, when I awake My bluebird flutters away Happiness, you seem so near me Happiness, come forth and cheer me I'm forever blowing bubbles Pretty bubbles in the air They fly so high Nearly reach the sky Then like my dreams they fade and die Fortune's always hiding I've looked ev'rywhere I'm forever blowing bubbles Pretty bubbles in the air
