( 英文歌曲 賞析 )

Stars shining bright above you;

Night breezes seem to whisper love you?

Birds singing in the sycamore tree.

Dream a little dream of me.

 .............................................

Say "night-ie night" and kiss me;

Just hold me tight and tell me you'll miss me.

While I'm alone, blue as can be,

Dream a little dream of me.

...............................................

Stars fading but I linger on, dear---

Still craving your kiss.

I'm longing to linger till dawn, dear,

Just saying this...

..................................................................

Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you---

Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you.

But in your dreams, whatever they be,

Dream a little dream of me.

...............................................

Stars fading but I linger on, dear---

Still craving your kiss.

I'm longing to linger till dawn, dear,

Just saying this...

...........................................................


Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you---

Sweet dreams that leave all worries far behind you.

But in your dreams, whatever they be,

Dream a little dream of me.
