Send me the pillow that you dream on
Don't you know that I still care for you? Send me the pillow that you dream on So darling, I can dream on it, too Each night while I'm sleeping oh, so lonely I'll share your love in dreams that once were true Send me the pillow that you dream on So darling, I can dream on it, too Send me the pillow that you dream on Maybe time will let our dreams come true Send me the pillow that you dream on So darling, I can dream on it, too I've waited so long for you to write me But just a memory's all that's left of you Send me the pillow that you dream on So darling, I can dream on it, too So I can dream on it, too |
