A candy coloured clown they call the sandman,

Tiptoes to my room every night,

Just to sprinkle star dust and to whisper,

"Go to sleep everything is alright;"



I close my eyes and I drift away,

And to 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 when you said "goodbye".



It's too bad that all these things,

Can only happen in my dreams,

Only in dreams,

In beautiful dreams,

Only in dreams,

In beautiful dreams.
