Darn That Dream

Imagine me with my head on your shoulder

And you with your lips getting bolder

A sky full of moon and a sweet mellow tune

I'll buy that dream

Imagine me in a gown, white and flowery

And you thanking Dad for my dowry

A church full of folks, those last minute jokes

I'll buy that dream

A honeymoon in Cairo in a brand new auto gyro

Then off to Rio for a drink, we'll settle down in Dallas

In a little plastic palace, oh, it's not as crazy as you think

Imagine me eighty-three, wearing glasses

And you ninety-two, making passes

It doesn't sound bad and if it can be had

I'll buy that dream

Imagine me with my head on your shoulder

And you with your lips getting bolder

The sky full of moon, a sweet mellow tune

I'll buy that dream

Imagine me in a gown, white and flowery

And you thanking Dad for my dowry

A church full of folks and those last minute jokes

I'll buy that dream

A honeymoon in Cairo in a brand new auto gyro

Then home by rocket in a wink, we'll settle down near Dallas

In a little plastic palace, it's not as crazy as you think

Imagine me on our first anniversary

With someone like you in the nursery

Oh, it doesn't sound bad and if it can be had

I'll buy that dream
