You know the dream I told you about the other day,
No, not the one that got me so upset
I mean the one I told you about that made me gay,
The one about the one that I dreamt I met
Well, what do you know
He smiled at me in my dreams last night
My dreams are getting better all the time
And what do you know
He looked at me in a different light
My dreams are getting better all the time
To think that we were strangers
A couple of nights ago
An' though it's a dream, I never dreamed
He'd ever say hello
Oh, maybe tonight I'll hold him tight
When the moonbeams shine
My dreams are getting better all the time
(Orchestral Break)
To think that we were strangers
A couple of nights ago
An' though it's a dream, I never dreamed
He'd ever say hello
Well, maybe tonight I'll hold him tight
When the moonbeams shine
My dreams are getting better all the time
**The end of the line "Oh, maybe tonight I'll hold him tight"
is sometimes changed to "Oh, maybe tonight he'll hold me tight"
