(Bert Kalmar, Harry Ruby and Oscar Hammerstein II) Gimme a kiss to build a dream on And my imagination Will thrive upon that kiss Sweetheart, I ask no more than this A Kiss to build a dream on Give me a kiss before you leave me And my imagination Will feed my hungry heart Leave me one thing before we part A kiss to build a dream on When I'm alone with my fancies I'll be with you Weaving romances Making believe they're true Oh, gimme your lips for just a moment And my imagination Will make that moment live Give me what you alone can give A kiss to build a dream on Gimme a kiss to build a dream on And my imagination Will thrive upon that kiss Sweetheart, I ask no more than this A Kiss to build a dream on Give me a kiss before you leave me And my imagination Will feed my hungry heart Leave me one thing before we part A kiss to build a dream on When I'm alone with my fancies I'll be with you Weaving romances Making believe they're true Oh, gimme your lips for just a moment And my imagination Will make that moment live Give me what you alone can give A kiss to build a dream on
