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
