Manhattan Transfer – Dream Lover lyrics

Dream, Dream Lover
Dream, Dream Lover

[Verse:]
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,

(Chorus 1)
I want a Dream Lover so I don't have to dream alone

[Verse 2:]
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 girl - to call - my own,

(Chorus 2)
I want a Dream Lover so I don't have to dream alone

[Bridge:]
Someday, I don't know how,
I hoe you'll hear my plea
Someway, I don't know how,
She'll bring her love to me

[Verse 3:]
Dream Lover, until then
I'll go to sleep and dream again.
That's the only thing to do
Until my lover's dream comes true
Because I want - a girl - to call- my own,

(Chorus 3)
I want a Dream Lover so I don't have to dream alone

[Bridge:]
Ooh, I got to hold on (someway)
But I don't know how, she'll bring her love to me,
Her love to me

[Verse 3:]
Dream Lover, until then
I'll go to sleep and dream again.
That's the only thing to do
Until my lover's dream comes true
Because I want - a girl - to call- my own,

(Chorus 3)
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

(Fade)
Dream, Dream Lover
Dream, Dream Lover

(Repeat)
