Last night
I had a beautiful dream
Last night
In the wee wee hours
Oh yes
Had a beautiful dream
Ain't about my childhood sweetheart
How true and real it seemed
Yeah
I dreamt we was walkin
Together
Hand in hand
Home from school
Yeah
If it hadn't be for you darling
I'd broke my mother's rule
Yeah
You was only sixteen
So young and yet so fine
Yeah
You was only sixteen
So young
Yet so fine
You said when you finish school
You let me take and make you mine
Oh yeah
Yeah
You had those same pretty eyes
Same sweet little smile
You had those same pretty eyes
Same sweet little smile
I had dreamt about the sweet things
We used to do
When you was a child
You were my childhood sweetheart
Love you now
And loved you then
You were my childhood sweetheart
I love you now and I loved you then
And when I'll leave you down the twilight
I'll go to sleep and dream again
