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
  
   Because I want
   A girl
   To call
   My own
   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 a hand that I can hold
   Feel you near
   As I grow old
  
   Because I want
   A girl
   To call
   My own
   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
   Someway, 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
   'Til all my lover's dreams come true
  
   Because I want
   A girl
   To call
   My own
   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
   'Til all my lover's dreams come true
  
   Because I want
   A girl
   To call
   My own
   I want a dream lover
   So I don't have to
   Dream alone
  
   Please, don't make me dream
   Alone
