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 all right."
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
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
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
It's too bad that all these things Can only happen in my dreams Only in dreams In beautiful dreams
