Lyric
When the lights go down and the music gets prettyGet that cheek-to-cheek look in your eyeLittle boy go, better grab your honeyGirl, you’d better get your guyIt’s time to dream, dream dancin’Dream, dream dancin’Out on the dance floor, everybody’s all aloneJust squeeze my hand and then let’s close our eyesAnd listen to the man play on the saxophoneAs we swerve ‘cross the floor, just there, stars in the skyDream, dream dancin’Dream, dream dancin’Close your eyes, hold me tightLet the night last foreverClose your eyes, hold me tightLet the night last foreverAnd I don’t mind if the sun never shinesAnd I don’t care if tomorrow never comesAs long as we are dream, dream dancin’Dream, dream dancin’When the joint shuts down and I’m still feeling upWe go on home for a little cozy coverFor our favorite station on the radioWe’ll be dancin’ close, we’ll be dancin’ slowDream, dream dancin’Dream, dream dancin’
