You know I need someone
Someone I can call my own
You know I need somebody, need somebody
'Cause I don't want to be alone

Every night I hope and pray a dream lover will come my way
A girl to hold in my arms and know the magic of her charms
'cause I want a girl to call my own
I want a dream lover so I don't have to dream alone

Dream lover, where are you with a love, oh, so true?
And I hand that can hold, to feel you near as I grow old?
'cause I want a girl to call my own
I want a dream lover so I don't have to dream alone

Well, someday, I don't know how, I hope she'll hear my plea
Some way, and I don't know how, she'll bring her love to me

Dream lover, until then, I'll go to sleep and dream again
That's the only thing to do, till my lover's dreams come true
'cause I want a girl (a girl) to call (to call) my own
I want a dream lover so I don't have to dream alone

'cause I want a girl (a girl) to call (to call) my own
I want a dream lover so I don't have to dream alone
Please don't make me dream alone
I want a dream lover so I don't have to dream alone
Don't make me dream alone
I want a dream lover so I don't have to dream alone
