Every night I hope and pray
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
To 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
Until my lover's dream 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 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
Until my lover's dream come true
Because I want a girl 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
I want a dream lover
So I don't have to dream alone
