The Latest Multi-track Offering

I know this song well, so it didn't take long to record. Backing guitar track + melody vocal track + harmony vocal track = Finished. Every musician, or for that matter, vocalist stumbles across songs that are well-suited for their range and style. I often try to challenge myself as best I can, but songs like these are easy for me.

Right now, I don't really have the energy or focus for much else. And for a bit of interesting history, this song reached #1 in 1958 in both the pop and country charts. The odd thing is, I don't really consider this a country song by any stretch of the means.





Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
When I want you in my arms
When I want you and all your charms
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream

When I feel blue in the night
And I need you to hold me tight
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam

I can make you mine, taste your lips of wine
Anytime night or day
Only trouble is, gee whiz
I'm dreamin' my life away

I need you so that I could die
I love you so and that is why
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam

I can make you mine, taste your lips of wine
Anytime night or day
Only trouble is, gee whiz
I'm dreamin' my life away

I need you so that I could die
I love you so and that is why
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream

Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
