Stars shining bright above you Night breezes seem to whisper I love you Birds singing in the sycamore tree Dream a little dream of me
Say nighty-night and kiss me Just hold me tight and tell me you'll miss me While I'm alone and blue as can be Dream a little dream of me
Stars fading but I linger on, dear Still craving your kiss I'm longing to linger til dawn, dear Just saying this
Sweet dreams til sunbeams find you Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you But in your dreams whatever they be Dream a little dream of me
Stars fading but I linger on, dear Still craving your kiss I'm longing to linger til dawn, dear Just saying this
Sweet dreams til sunbeams find you Sweet dreams that leave all worries far behind you But in your dreams whatever they be Dream a little dream of me ========================= http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dream_a_Little_Dream_of_Me
