Dream Lover – Bobby Darin Lyrics
Every night I hope and pray My dream lover will come my way A girl to hold in my arms And know the magic of her charms ‘Cause I want a girl to call my own I want a dream lover So I don’t have to dream alone
Dream lover, where are you? With a love oh so true And a hand that I can hold To feel you near as I grow old ‘Cause I want a girl to call my own I want a dream lover So I don’t have to dream alone
Someday, I don’t know how I hope she’ll hear my plea Someway, I don’t know how She’ll bring her love to me ‘Cause I want a girl to call my own I want a dream lover So I don’t have to dream alone
Dream lover, until then I’ll go to sleep and dream again That’s the only thing to do Till all my lover’s dreams come true ‘Cause I want a girl to call my own I want a dream lover So I don’t have to dream alone
Please don’t make me dream alone I beg ya’, don’t make me dream alone No, I don’t wanna’ dream alone
