a candy colored clown
they call the sandman
tiptoes to my room every night
just to sprinkle star
dust and to whisper
go to sleep everything is alright
i close my eyes
then i drift away
into the magic night
i softly say
a silent prayer
like dreamers do
then i fall asleep
to dream my dreams of you
in dreams
i walk with you
in dreams
i talk to you
in dreams you're mine
all of the time
we're together in dreams
in dreams
but just before the dawn
i awake and find you gone
i can't help it
i can't help it
if i cry
i remember
that you said goodbye
it's too bad it only seems
it only happens in my dreams
only in dreams
in beautiful dreams
