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 Chorus: '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 the hand that I can hold To feel you near as I grow old Repeat Chorus Someday, I don't know how I hope she'll hear my plea Some way, 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 Till all my lover's dreams come true Repeat Chorus 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 Repeat Chorus Please don't make me dream alone I beg you don't make me dream alone No, I don't wanna dream
