Lyrics

Somewhere, someday
We'll be close together, wait and see
Oh, by the way
This time the dream's on me
You take my hand
And you look at me adoringly
But as things stand
This time the dream's on me
It would be fun
To be certain that I'm the one
To know that I, at least
Supply the shoulder you cry upon
To see you through
'Til you're everything you want to be
It can't be true, but
This time the dream's on me
It would be fun
To be certain that I'm the one
To know that I, at least
Supply the shoulder you cry upon
To see you through
'Til you're everything you want to be
It can't be true, but
This time the dream's on me
This time the dream's on me
This time the dream's on me
Written by: Harold Arlen, Johnny Mercer
