Lyrics

One two, one two three four

I dreamed you paid your dues in Canada

And left me to come through

I headed for there right away

I knew exactly just what to do

I dreamed we played cards in the dark

And you lost and you cried

Wasn't very hard to do

Hurt me deep down inside

Oh these dreams of you

So real and so true

These dreams of you

So real and so true

My back was up against the wall

As you slowly walked away

You never really heard my call

When I cried out that way

With my face against the sun

You pointed out for me to go

And you said I was the one

That had to reap everything you did sow

Oh these dreams of you

So real and so true

These dreams of you

So real and so true

But hush-a-bye, don't ever think about it

Go to sleep, don't ever say one word

Close your eyes, you are an angel

Sent here from above

And Ray Charles was shot down

But he got up to do his best

Crowd of people gathered 'round

And to the question answered yes

Bobby Plant came sailing through

'Cause he's a man that sang the blues

Just stepping up between me and you

Said cannot be in these dreams of you too

Oh these dreams of you

So real and so true

These dreams of you

So real and so true

Saxophone

And hush-a-bye, don't ever think about it

Go to sleep, don't ever say one word

Close your eyes, you are an angel, darling

Sent here from above

And hush-a-bye, don't ever think about it

Go to sleep, don't ever say one word

Close your eyes, you are an angel

Sent here from above
