Gibshill Trio Sounds


(MEET ME IN MY DREAMS TO-NIGHT)

VERSE
UNDER THE MOON I AM WAITING,
DOWN LOVER'S LANE WHERE I STRAY.
PLEASE COME ALONG,
SING LOVE'S SWEET SONG.
SWEETHEART, THO' YOU'RE FAR AWAY.

CHORUS
MEET ME IN MY DREAMS TO-NIGHT, DEAR,
LET ME SEE YOUR SUNNY SMILE.
MEET ME IN MY DREAMS, TO-NIGHT DEAR.
LINGER IN MY ARMS A WHILE.
YOU HAVE BEEN MY INSPIRATION.
LOVE HAS BEEN MY GUIDING LIGHT.
WHEN I CLOSE MY EYES,
MY HEART ALWAYS CRIES.
MEET ME IN MY DREAMS TO-NIGHT.

2ND VERSE
FLOWERS ARE BLOOMING AGAIN DEAR,
BLUEBIRDS ARE MATING ONCE MORE.
SPRINGTIME IS HERE,
LOVE TIME IS NEAR.
YOU ARE THE ONE I ADORE.

REPEAT CHORUS

Wingy O'Neil, Joe Robbie, and one of the Gilmour lads.

4 Irwin St, Gibshill, Greenock. Ground floor, Corr's to one side Burkes the other, Millars and Gilmours in the middle, the Gibshill Trio always rehearsed on the ground floor stair well, we ( the kids ) sat 3 to 4 to a step all the way up to the first landing.....we have no TV, and the radio worked off an accumulator, so playing time was limited

We all grew up with music, Gibshill was well known for parties, we, ' the Sinclair's' were lucky, we had Jimmy Neill, who played accordion & piano, we all took it in turns round the room to sing, you didn't have to be good, just join in, " Wan Singer, Wan Song " the cry would come up if you talked or try to join in when someone was singing

I CAN'T SING as you will hear from the video, but I just wanted you to hear the sounds we loved and grew up with

lived in London for over 25 years and carried on the Sinclair style...Parties & more Parties, I sang this song, nobody heard it before, but I've never forgot it....." PLEASE DON'T LET THIS SONG DIE ", I would love to hear a singer record this, and let me hear it before I pass on to the Happy Hunting Ground.
