I'll Buy That Dream

Imagine me with my head on your shoulder
And you with your lips getting bolder
A sky full of moon and a sweet mellow tune
I'll buy that dream

Imagine me in a gown white and flowery
And you thanking Dad for my dowry
A church full of folks, those last minute jokes
I'll buy that dream

A honeymoon in Cairo, in a brand new autogyro
Then off to Rio for a drink
We'll settle down in Dallas
In a little plastic palace
Oh it's not as crazy as you think

Imagine me eighty three wearing glasses
And you ninety two making passes
It soesn't sound bad, and if it can be had
I'll buy that dream

Imagine me with my head on your shoulder
And you with your lips getting bolder
The sky full of moon, a sweet mellow tune
I'll buy that dream

Imagine me in a gown white and flowery
And you thanking Dad for my dowry
A church full of folks and those last minute jokes
I'll buy that dream

A honeymoon in Cairo in a brand new autogyro
Then home by rocket in a wink
We'll settle down near Dallas
In a little plastic palace
It's not as crazy as you think

Imagine me on our first anniversary
With some one like you in the nursery
Oh, it doesn't sound bad
And if it can be had
