Lyrics
“All I Have To Do Is Dream”
Dream, dream, dream, dream
Dream, dream, dream, dreamWhen I want you in my arms
When I want you and all your charms
Whenever I want you
All I have to do is dream
Dream, dream, dreamWhen I feel blue in the night
And I need you to hold me tight
Whenever I want you
All I have to do is dreamI can make you mine
Taste your lips of wine
Anytime night or day
Only trouble is
Gee whiz
I’m dreamin’ my life awayI need you so, that I could die
I love you so and that is why
Whenever I want you
All I have to do is dream
Dream, dream, dream, dreamI can make you mine
Taste your lips of wine
Anytime night or day
Only trouble is
Gee whiz
I’m dreamin’ my life awayI need you so, that I could die
I love you so and that is why
Whenever I want you
All I have to do is dreamDream, dream, dream
Dream, dream, dream, dream
