"In Dreams" by Roy Orbison

A candy-colored clown they call the sandman
Tiptoes to my room every night
Just to sprinkle stardust and to whisper
"Go to sleep, everything is alright"

I close my eyes, then I drift away
Into the magic night I softly say
A silent prayer, like dreamers do
Then I fall asleep to dream my dreams of you

In dreams, I walk with you
In dreams, I talk to you
In dreams, you're mine, all of the time
We're together in dreams, in dreams

But just before the dawn
I awake and find you gone
I cant help it, I can't help, it if I cry
I remember that you said goodbye

It's too bad that all these things,
Can only happen in my dreams,
Only in dreams
In beautiful dreams.
