All I Have To Do Is Dream Lyrics

Dream, dream, dream, dream
Dream, dream, dream, dream

When I want you in my arms
When I want you and all your charms
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Dream, dream, dream, dream

When I feel blue in the night
And I need you to hold me tight
Whenever I want you all I have to do is dream

I can make you mine
Taste your lips of wine
Anytime, night or day
Only trouble is, gee whiz
I'm dreaming my life away

I need you so that I could die
I love you so and that is why
Whenever I want you all I have to do is
Dream, dream, dream, dream

I can make you mine
Taste your lips of wine
Anytime, night or day
Only trouble is, gee whiz
I'm dreaming my life away

I need you so that I could die
I love you so and that is why
Whenever I want you all I have to do is
Dream, dream, dream, dream
Dream, dream, dream, dream

The "gee whizz " part is pretty corny, but its a great song over all, it's so touching and serene.

Yeah... this song was made in the 50's, so I don't know if it was corny at the time

I don't think so. I think it gives a great 50's vibe as it is a popular colloquialism of the time.

Bob Dylan's cover is priceless. Just hearing him sing "Gee whiz" is hilarious.

The song is about masturbation. When he says he's dreaming his life away it means he is masturbating all the time. You have to remember this song came out in the 50's so the innuendos were more subtle. Anytime he is talking about dreaming he is talking about masturbating.

They just hid it in this sweet song so women can think of it in a more romantic way. Whomever wrote this song was a genius.

Today they would just be blatant and talk about masturbation. I think a song is better if the message is a little more hidden.

Read the lyrics again, look at every time he says dream or dreaming. This is when he is thinking about masturbating. You will see that the song isn't as sweet as most of you are making it out to be.

this song is so beautiful. I think most of us at one time or another do exactly as said above. I think this is a perfect song for a crush (cosidering that you just dream about them, I am supposing the feeling is one sided!) or new love 9given time the dreamin' will cease!)

To me this song is not necessarily one sided.. more about being parted from someone that you care a great deal about and missing them.

yes i defintly agree with 1234kiwi...its when you're missing someone, or you've moved 3 hours away and alll you want is your signifcant other to be with you, but they can't cause they're far away...so all you have to do is dream. (relateable)

my favorite song of all time,I love it

I don't really see this as being a one sided thing. I believe it is more that he is dreaming about someone he is in love with. Being "in love" and having a crush that you day dream about are not the same thing.
"I can make you mine Taste your lips of wine Anytime, night or day Only trouble is, gee whiz I'm dreaming my life away" Which is most of the song... is recalling something he knows about. Remembering what he has with the person when he is with them.. not simply fantasizing in his head. Sweet song.
