Daydream (Of You)

Roy Orbison · Other Songs - Roy Orbison

Daydream, daydream, daydream

Well, day-day-daydream

Well i got troubles on my mind

And time on my hands and i'm lonely

I leave the world behind

And i spend all my time with you only



Well there's a place i know

Where we can go

So we can be alone

Sometimes i live in a dream world of my own



Well here i go, away up high

And daydream, daydream, daydream

Well i run away on the milky way

And daydream of you



Well, when things are not so hot

And i've got the blues

I dream a lot

Yeah, when i'm not with you



Well it's so much fun to be the one

On a flight through fantasy

Well, when i dream

Yuo're always with me



Well here i go, away up high

And daydream, daydream, daydream

??? ???, and i catch a shooting star

And daydream of you

you, you, you

you, you, you
