Stars shining bright above you
Night breezes seem to whisper “I love you“
Birds singing in the sycamore trees
Dream a little dream of me
Say nighty-night and kiss me
Just hold me tight and tell me you’ll miss me
While I’m alone and blue as can be
Dream a little dream of me
Stars fading but I linger on dear
Still craving your kiss
I’m longing to linger till dawn dear
Just saying this
Give me a little ole kiss
Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me
Stars fading but I linger on dear
Still craving your kiss
Yea I’m longing to linger till dawn dear
Just saying this
Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams gotta keep dreaming
Leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
You got to make me a promise
Promise to me you’ll dream
Dream a little dream of me
Yes, dream a little dream of me
