It Shouldn’t Happen to a Dream Dinah Washington

[Verse 1]
Millions of stars playing tag in the skies
All of my hopes living right in your eyes
So much at stake, and then I wake up
It shouldn't of happened
It shouldn't of happened to a dream

[Verse 2]
Light-fingered clouds tuck the moon into bed
I feel your lips stand my heart on its head
Then comes the ache, again I wake up
Lawd, it shouldn't happen to a dream

[Bridge]
The flowers get happy and dance down the lane
The darkness no longer is deep
We're meant for each other, it's perfectly plain
Each timе you walk in my sleep

[Verse 3]
Here comes thе night cutting capers again;
Oh, just for a while you'll be with me, and then
The bubble will break, again I'll wake up
And it shouldn't happen to a dream

[Outro]
No it shouldn't, no it shouldn't
No it shouldn't happen to a dream
