[Intro]

A candy-colored clown they call the sandman

Tiptoes to my room every night

Just to sprinkle stardust and to whisper

"Go to sleep, everything is alright"


[Verse 1]

I close my eyes, then I drift away

Into the magic night, I softly say

A silent prayer like dreamers do

Then I fall asleep to dream my dreams of you


[Chorus]

In dreams, I walk with you

In dreams, I talk to you

In dreams, you're mine, all of the time

We're together in dreams, in dreams


[Verse 2]

But just before the dawn

I awake and find you gone

I can't help it, I can't help it, if I cry

I remember that you said goodbye


[Chorus]

It's too bad that all these things

Can only happen in my dreams

Only in dreams

In beautiful dreams
