Do you have (or have you ever had) a dream lover? ~
“Dream Lover” by Bobby Darin, 1959.
LYRICS:
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 '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 '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 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, ‘til all my lover's dreams come true 'Cause I want A girl To call My own I want a dream lover So I don't have to dream…
When I was about 13, I had a girlfriend who was very popular with the neighborhood boys. She was good looking and somewhat aggressive. I guess we lost interest in each other as other fellows moved into her range. Well, today, she is like 65, and has put on some weight and has gone through a few marriages and I don't have any interest in her any more. But back in the day--------------- !
