- Verse:
- We meet at evening time,
'Tis sweet at evening time,
- To know I'll spend an hour
or two, Just with you.
- Then when the hour grows
late; I love to hesitate,
- The moments seem so fleeting,
While I am here repeating.
-
- Chorus:
- Stars shining bright above
you, Night breezes seem to whisper, "I love
you,"
- Birds singing in the sycamore
tree, "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 longing 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.
