You’re a dreamer, a pretty little dreamer
   I couldn’t leave you, I really couldn’t leave you
   You didn’t gimme gimme time to beat the fever
   I’ve got the fever, I couldn’t beat the fever
  
   Just listen while I’m talking to you all night long
   Right or wrong, listen to me all night long
   I’m never gonna waste time crying all night long
   Right or wrong, I won’t be crying all night long
  
   You’re a dreamer, a pretty little dreamer
   I couldn’t leave you, I really couldn’t leave you
   You didn’t gimme gimme time to beat the fever
   I’ve got the fever, I couldn’t beat the fever
  
   You’re a dreamer, a pretty little dreamer
   I couldn’t leave you, I really couldn’t leave you
   You didn’t gimme gimme time to beat the fever
   I’ve got the fever, I couldn’t beat the fever
  
   I’ve waited long enough I reckon on my own
   Tried to phone, tried to phone but you’re not home
   I’m thinking while I try and reason what went wrong
   Something’s gone, ain’t no good in hanging on
  
   You’re a dreamer, a pretty little dreamer
   I couldn’t leave you, I really couldn’t leave you
   You didn’t gimme gimme time to beat the fever
   I’ve got the fever, the fever for the dreamer
   You didn’t gimme gimme time to beat the fever
   I’ve got the fever, the fever for the dreamer
   You didn’t gimme gimme time to beat the fever
   I’ve got the fever, a fever for the dreamer
  
   You didn’t gimme gimme
   You didn’t gimme gimme
   You didn’t gimme gimme
