Lyrics
1. Dreamy eyes, I wonder if you sometimes dream of me
Oh, surprising eyes, tantalizing eyes
If I asked the question, dear, what will the answer be
I’ll see reflected in your blue eyes?
Will you whisper “Yes,” dear
And your love confess, dear
Tell me, won’t you tell me dreamy eyes? Oh!
Chorus:
Dream on, dreamy eyes, tell me your dream
What’s the meaning of what you’re dreaming of?
Shine on, shine on, like stars in the skies
Dream on, dream, dreamy eyes
2. Tell me, dear, the story that you’re dreaming eyes conceal
Eyes divinely blue, eyes I know are true
Why not now the secret of your heart of hearts reveal?
Why keep me waiting when I’m so blue?
Eyes that dream and haunt me
Eyes that almost taunt me
Tell me why you thrill me thro’ and thro’? Oh!
