Lyrics by Gus Kahn (06 Nov 1886 – 08 Oct 1941), 1931
Stars shining bright above you Night breezes seem to whisper, "I love you" Birds singin’ in the sycamore trees Dream a little dream of me Say nighty-night and kiss me Just hold me tight and tell me you’ll miss me While I’m alone and blue as can be Dream a little dream of me Stars fading but I linger on dear Still craving your kiss I’m longin’ to linger till dawn dear Just saying this Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you But in your dreams whatever they be Dream a little dream of me (instrumental break) Stars shining up above you Night breezes seem to whisper "i love you" Birds singin’ in the sycamore trees Dream a little dream of me Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you But in your dreams whatever they be Dream a little dream of me Yes, dream a little dream of me
