Everynight 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
'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 a hand that I can hold
Feel you near as I grow old
'Cause I want a girl to call my own
I want a dream lover
So I don't have to dream alone

Someday, I don't know how
I hope she'll hear my plea
Someway, 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 lovers dreams come true
'Cause I want a girl to call my own
I want a dream lover
So I don't have to dream alone

Dream lover, until then
I'll go to sleep and dream again
That's the only thing to do
Till all my lovers dreams come true
'Cause I want a girl to call my own
I want a dream lover
So I don't have to dream alone
Please don't make me dream alone
I beg you, don't make me dream alone
No I don't wanna dream alone
