[Verse 1: Mary Davis]
Soothe you with my caress
Relax, baby, lay your head down on my chest
I’m not a doctor, but
I’ll cure all your troubles
[Chorus: Mary Davis]
Even when you sleep
You’ll know that I am there
To hug and keep you warm
And soothe you while you’re dreaming
A twinkle in your mind
Shimmering thoughts of joy
Sweet dreams, my love
Until you’re awake again
[Verse 2: Mary Davis]
Anything to please my man
I like to do the best I can do
My all, I’ll give to you
‘Cause you are my love, and you are my life
What my dreams are made of (whoa, whoa, oh)
So dream of this love I’m giving to you
Forget all your troubles (whoa, whoa, whoa)
[Chorus: Mary Davis]
Even when you sleep
You’ll know that I am there
To hug and keep you warm
And soothe you while you’re dreaming
A twinkle in your mind
Shimmering thoughts of joy
Sweet dreams, my love
Will always be yours when you sleep
Even when you sleep (Oh, baby, I will be there)
To hug and keep you warm
(And soothe you while you’re dreaming)
A twinkle in your mind (twinkle in your mind)
Shimmering thoughts of joy
Oh, sweet dreams, my love
Will always be yours when you sleep
My dream of love is true, it's meant for you
Dream all your troubles away
[Chorus: Mary Davis]
Even when you sleep
You’ll know that I am there
To hug and keep you warm
And soothe you while you’re dreaming
A twinkle in your mind
Shimmering thoughts of joy
Dream all your troubles away
Even when you sleep
You’ll know that I am there
To hug and keep you warm
And soothe you while you’re dreaming
A twinkle in your mind
Shimmering thoughts of joy
Dream all your troubles away
(Ooh, ooh, whoa, whoa, whoa)
Even when you sleep
(Even in your sleep, baby)
To hug and keep you warm
(I wanna hug ya, and keep you warm)
A twinkle in your mind
(Twinkle in your mind)
Shimmering thoughts of joy
(Baby, lover, sweetheart)
Dream all your troubles away
(Whoa, whoa, whoa)
Even when you sleep
(I wanna hold ya, kiss ya, love ya)
To hug and keep you warm
(Wanna be there right there with you, baby)
A twinkle in your mind
(Twinkle in your mind)

Soothe you with my caress
Relax, baby, lay your head down on my chest
I’m not a doctor, but
