Lyrics
Ev'ry night, I hope and pray
Every night, I express my desires through hope and prayer.
A dream lover will come my way
I anticipate the arrival of a dream lover in my life.
A boy to hold in my arms
I long for a boy to embrace in my arms.
And know the magic of her charms
I want to experience the enchantment of his charms.
(Chorus:)
< em > (Chorus)
Because I want a boy
Expressing the desire for a boy to call my own.
To call my own
Yearning for a dream lover to end the solitude.
I want a dream lover
Reiterating the wish for a dream lover.
So I don't have to dream alone
Hoping to avoid the loneliness of dreaming alone.
Dream lover, where are you
Questioning the whereabouts of the dream lover.
With a love oh so true
Desiring a love that is genuine and sincere.
And a hand that I can hold
Seeking a hand to hold in companionship.
To feel you near when I grow old?
Wishing to feel the presence of the lover even in old age.
(Repeat chorus)
< em > (Repeat chorus)
(Bridge:)
< em > (Bridge)
Someday--I don't know how
Expressing uncertainty about the future but holding onto hope.
I hope you'll hear my pleas
Expressing a plea, uncertain of how it will be heard.
Some way--I don't know how
Expressing uncertainty about how the lover's love will reach the speaker.
He'll bring his love to me
Anticipating the arrival of the lover who will bring love.
Dream lover, until then
Addressing the dream lover and expressing patience until their arrival.
I'll go to sleep and dream again
Indicating the recourse of sleeping and dreaming in the absence of the lover.
That's the only thing to do
Acknowledging that dreaming is the only option until the lover's dreams come true.
Until my lover's dreams come true
Persisting in the anticipation of the lover's dreams turning into reality.
