托尼 班尼特K.D. Lang Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Night breezes seem to whisper "I love you"
Birds singin' in the sycamore trees
Dream a little dream of me
Say nighty-night and kiss me
Just hold me tight and tell me you'll miss me
While I'm alone and blue as can be
Stars fading but I linger on dear
Still craving your kiss
I'm longin' to linger till dawn dear
Just saying this
Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me
Stars fading but I linger on dear
Still craving your kiss
I'm longin' to linger till dawn dear
Just saying this
Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me
Dream a little dream of me
The lyrics of "Dream A Little Dream Of Me" is a love song that captures the essence of sleeping together and dreaming about each other. When the song says "Stars shining bright above you," it is painting a picture of a peaceful night with the stars shining bright above, and the "night breezes" whispering loving words to the listener. This then leads to an invitation to "dream a little dream of me," a call to the listener to dream about the singer and their love.
As the song progresses, the singer urges their lover to hold them tight and remind them that they'll be missed. The third verse of the song is a yearning, as the singer says "stars fading, but I linger on, dear, still craving your kiss." It's a sign of desperation, a desire not to end the moment they're in, and a regret that the night will soon be over.
Finally, the song ends with the singer wishing their lover sweet dreams that will take away all their worries, and to dream again of them. Overall, the track is a beautiful love ballad that will make anyone feel warm and fuzzy inside.
