Get in touch with that sundown fellow
As he tiptoes across the sand
He's got a million kinds of stardust
Pick your fav'rite 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.
Things are never as bad as they seem,
So dream, dream, dream.
