Every night I hope and pray A dream lover will come my way A boy to hold in my arms And know the magic of his charms Because I want a boy 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 To feel you near when I grow old Because I want a boy 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 he'll hear my plea Some way, I don't know how He'll bring his love to me Dream lover, until then I'll go to sleep and dream again That's the only thing to do Until my lover's dreams come true Because I want a boy to call my own I want a dream lover So I don't have to dream alone I want a dream lover So I don't have to dream alone
