Lyrics
Deep in a dream
I stir and speak the name of her
When I call Laurie.
Is she real or is she just a name I dreamed of, Laurie?

Sweet indecision,
Sweet lovely vision.
See her come smiling!
Charming!
Beguiling!

Then I tumble down.
Out on the street
I hear the sound of traffic
While I look for Laurie.
Searching every face
But still no trace is there of Laurie.

Sweet inspiration,
In sweet desperation
I sleep once again
But to dream
For it seems that Laurie
Only loves me when I’m dreaming

//
Maxwellton’s braes are bonny
Where early falls the dew
And it’s there that Annie Laurie
Gi’ me her promise true,
Gi’ me her promise true
Which ne’er forgot will be
And for bonny Annie Laurie
I’d lay me down and di’,
I’d lay me down and di’.
