Verse:
Get in touch with that sun -down fel -low, As he tip -toes a -cross the sand.
He's got a mil -lion kinds of star -dust, Pick your fav -'rite brand, and:
 
Chorus:
Dream when you're feel -in' blue,
Dream that's the thing to do.
Just watch the smoke -rings rise in the air,
You'll find your share of mem -o -ries there.
So Dream when the day is thru,
Dream and they might come true,
Things nev -er are as bad as they seem,
So Dream, Dream, Dream.
