[Words by Irving Kahal, Music by Sammy Fain]

(Dream on, dream on)

I can see
No matter how near you'll be
You'll never belong to me
But I can dream, can't I
Can't I pretend that I'm locked in the bend of your embrace
For dreams are just like wine
And I am drunk with mine

I'm aware
My heart is a sad affair
There's much disillusion there
But I can dream, can't I
Can't I adore you
Although we are oceans apart
I can't make you open your heart
But I can dream, can't I

I'm aware
My heart is a sad affair
There's much disillusion there
But I can dream, can't I
Can't I adore you
Although we are oceans apart
I can't make you open your heart
But I can dream, can't I
