Dream A Little Dream Of Me
Louis & Ella Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Night breezes seem to whisper, I love you
Birds singing in the sycamore tree
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 (oh, how you linger on)
Still craving your kiss (how you crave my kiss)
Now I'm longing to linger 'til dawn, dear
Just saying this (give me a little kiss)
Sweet dreams 'til 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
Yeah, I'm longing to linger 'til dawn, dear
Just saying this
Sweet dreams, dreamin', 'til sunbeams find you
Keep dreaming
Gotta keep dreaming, leave your worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
You've gotta make me a promise (oh yes), promise to me
You'll dream, dream a little dream of me
The song "Dream a Little Dream of Me" is a sweet and romantic love song that speaks about wanting to be with someone even if only in a dream. The lyrics describe the beauty of the night sky with shining stars and whispering night breezes, setting the scene for a dream-like state. The use of the sycamore tree and birds singing in it add to the imagery of nature and create a peaceful atmosphere for the listener.
The singer urges their love interest to say "nighty-night" and kiss them as they hold them tight and tell them they'll miss them. They are alone and feeling blue, but the thought of dreaming of their love brings them comfort. The chorus emphasizes the importance of dreaming as a way to escape worries and find peace. The singer is so enamored with their love that they long to linger until dawn, just to be close to them.
The final verse is more of a plea, with the singer asking their love interest to promise to dream of them. The repetition of the phrase "dream a little dream of me" reinforces the idea that dreams can bring people together even when they are physically apart. The song ends on a hopeful note, with the promise of sweet dreams and the hope that the dream will bring them closer together.

Everybody seems to get a different feeling when they hear this song.
To me, it’s laying down in bed after a warm soak in the tub from a hard days work, pulling a good and heavy quilt up to my chin, occasionally gazing at my dog and cat happily asleep, looking out the window to the snow topped pines and hilltop, listening to the crack of the fireplace, thinking back on all the good moments thats made my life worth living.
In today’s world, a bit of peace should be cherished.

Being a naturally lazy person that's my idea of heaven. Being in my bed perfectly comfortable but everyone I love and my pets bring close by and were all relaxed.
