Get in touch with that sundown fellow As he tiptoes across the sand He's got a million kinds of stardust Pick you fav'right brand, and Dream, when you're feeling blue Dream, that's the thing to do Just watch the smoke rings rise in the air You'll find your share of memories there So dream when the day is through Dream, and they might come true Things never are as bad as they seem So dream, dream, dream
