Lyrics
Life could be a dream
Life could be a dream
Do, do, do, do, sh-boom
Life could be a dream (sh-boom)
If I could take you up in paradise up above (sh-boom)
If you would tell me I'm the only one that you love
Life could be a dream, sweetheart
Hello, hello again, sh-boom and hopin' we'll meet again, boom (ba-boom)
Day dong da ding-dong
A-lang-da-lang-da-lang
Ah, woah, woah, bip
Ah bi-ba-do-da-dip, woah
Life could be a dream (sh-boom)
If only all my precious plans would come true (sh-boom)
If you would let me spend my whole life lovin' you
Life could be a dream, sweetheart (do do do do, sh-boom)
Every time I look at you
Something is on my mind
If you do what I want you to
Baby, we'd be so fine
Oh, life could be a dream, sh-boom
If I could take you up in paradise up above, sh-boom
You'd tell me, darlin', I'm the only one that you love
Life could be a dream, sweetheart
Hello, hello again, sh-boom and hope we'll meet again, boom (ba-boom)
Day dong da ding-dong
Sha-lang-a-la-lang-a-la-lang-a-la-lang-a-la
Woah, woah, bip
Ah bo da do da dip, woah
Life could be a dream
Life could be a dream, sweetheart
(Do do do do do, sh-boom)
(Do do do do do, sh-boom)
(Do do do do do, sh-boom)
(Do do do do do, sh-boom)
(Do do do do do, sh-boom)
(Do do do do do, sh-boom)
(Do do do do do, sh-boom)
Woah, life could be a dream, sh-boom
If I could take you up in paradise up above, sh-boom
You'd tell me, darlin', I'm the only one that you love
Life could be a dream, sweetheart
Hello, hello again, sh-boom and hope we'll meet again, boom (ba-boom)
Day dong da ding-dong
Sha-lang-a-la-lang-a-la-lang-a-la-lang-a-la
Woah, woah, bip
Ah bo da do da dip, woah
Life could be a dream, life could be a dream
Do do do do, sh-boom
