Dream Lover

Every night I hope and pray
A dream lover will come my way
A girl to hold in my arms
And know the magic of her charms
Because I want, yeah, yeah, yeah
A girl, yeah, yeah, yeah
To call, yeah, yeah, yeah
My own, yeah, yeah, yeah
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
Because I want, yeah, yeah, yeah
A girl, yeah, yeah, yeah
To call, yeah, yeah, yeah
My own, yeah, yeah, yeah
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
Dream lover until then
I'll go to sleep and dream again
That's the only thing to do
'Til all my lover's dreams come true
Because I want, yeah, yeah, yeah
A girl, yeah, yeah, yeah
To call, yeah, yeah, yeah
My own, yeah, yeah, yeah
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
'Til all my lover's dreams come true
Because I want, yeah, yeah, yeah
A girl, yeah, yeah, yeah
To call, yeah, yeah, yeah
My own, yeah, yeah, yeah
I want a dream lover
So I don't have to dream alone
Please don't make me dream alone
I beg you don't make me dream alone
No, I don't wanna dream alone
