Olivia’s “night time” music has the Everly Brothers “All I have to do is dream” on it. There’s no singing on the CD. Often I’m rocking her to that song and I sing along.
She’s down for her nap right now. And over the monitor I hear her singing “Dream dream dream … when I need you …”
Yes, she’s cute!
Here are the lyrics below:
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
When I want you in my arms
When I want you and all your charms
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
When I feel blue in the night
And I need you to hold me tight
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam
I can make you mine, taste your lips of wine
Anytime night or day
Only trouble is, gee whiz
I’m dreamin’ my life away
I need you so that I could die
I love you so and that is why
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam
I can make you mine, taste your lips of wine
Anytime night or day
Only trouble is, gee whiz
I’m dreamin’ my life away
I need you so that I could die
I love you so and that is why
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
When my father’s mom passed away (my grandmother– I was very young and never knew her), he told me that was her favorite song. It was one of the few good memories he had of her; when she was happy and singing to him as a boy.
I’ll bet it’s even sweeter to hear her little voice over the monitor. 🙂
