Lyrics

Dream, dream, dream, dreamDream, dream, dream, dream

When I want you in my armsWhen I want you and all your charmsWhenever I want you, all I have to do isDream, dream, dream, dream

When I feel blue in the nightAnd I need you to hold me tightWhenever I want you, all I have to do isDream

I can make you mine, taste your lips of wineAnytime, night or dayOnly trouble is, gee whizI'm dreamin' my life away


I need you so that I could dieI love you so and that is whyWhenever I want you, all I have to do isDream, dream, dream, dreamDream

I can make you mine, taste your lips of wineAnytime, night or dayOnly trouble is, gee whizI'm dreamin' my life away

I need you so that I could dieI love you so and that is whyWhenever I want you, all I have to do isDream, dream, dream, dreamDream, dream, dream, dreamDream, dream, dream, dreamDream
