Dream Lover 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 (yeah-yeah yeah)
a girl (yeah-yeah yeah)
to call (yeah-yeah yeah)
my own (yeah-yeah)
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 I hand that can hold,
To feel you near as I grow old?
'cause I want (yeah-yeah yeah)
A girl (yeah-yeah yeah)
To call (yeah-yeah yeah)
My own (yeah-yeah)
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,
Till all my lover's dreams come true
'Cause I want (yeah-yeah yeah)
A girl (yeah-yeah yeah)
To call (yeah-yeah yeah)
My own (yeah-yeah)
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 lover's dreams come true
'cause I want (yeah-yeah yeah)
A girl (yeah-yeah yeah)
To call (yeah-yeah yeah)
My own (yeah-yeah)
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
( FADE )
A dream lover will come my way
A girl to hold in my arms
And know the magic of her charms
'cause I want (yeah-yeah yeah)
a girl (yeah-yeah yeah)
to call (yeah-yeah yeah)
my own (yeah-yeah)
I want a dream lover so I don't have to dream alone
With a love, oh, so true?
And I hand that can hold,
To feel you near as I grow old?
'cause I want (yeah-yeah yeah)
A girl (yeah-yeah yeah)
To call (yeah-yeah yeah)
My own (yeah-yeah)
I want a dream lover so I don't have to dream alone
I hope she'll hear my plea
Some way, I don't know how,
She'll bring her love to me
I'll go to sleep and dream again
That's the only thing to do,
Till all my lover's dreams come true
'Cause I want (yeah-yeah yeah)
A girl (yeah-yeah yeah)

i love hearing this song play when i go to car shows
I can't believe more people haven't commented here. They certainly don't make them like this anymore. It seems most guys aren't interested in finding a soulmate for life anymore. I totally identify with this song.
I heard this song in Hot Shots!, and since then I love it. Its a very sweet song.
this song is adorable. i love it more everytime I hear it. Nothing compares to Bobby Darin.
This is a song of romantic love with no sexuality at all. It is pure and beautiful. It is unfortunate that we have gotten away from this.
It is also unfortunate that Bobby Darin, who composed it, did not find his dream lover. His marriage to Sandra Dee ought to have been a fairy tale marriage. Unfortunately, it was not.
