Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Give me a kiss to build a dream on

And my imagination

Will thrive upon that kiss

Sweetheart I ask no more than this

A kiss to build a dream on

[Verse 2]

Give me a kiss before you leave me

And my imagination

Will feed my hungry heart

Leave me on thing before we part

A kiss to build a dream on

[Verse 3]

And when I'm alone

With my fancies

I'll be with you

Weaving romances

Making believe they're true

[Verse 4]

Oh give me you're lips for just a moment

And my imagination

Will make that moment live

Give me what you alone can give

A kiss to build a dream on

[Verse 5]

And when I'm alone

With my fancies

Yes, I'll be with you

Weaving romances

Making believe they're true

[Verse 6]

Oh, lend me your chops for just a moment

And my imagination

Will make that moment live, yes

Give me what you alone can give

A kiss to build a dream on
