Mr. Sandman lyrics - Bette Midler

(originally by The Chordettes)

(bung, bung, bung, bung..........)

Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream (bung, bung, bung, bung)

Make him the cutest that I've ever seen (bung, bung, bung, bung)

Give him two lips like roses and clover (bung, bung, bung, bung)

Then tell him that his lonesome nights are over.

Mr. Sandman, I'm so alone

Don't have nobody to call my own

Please turn on your magic beam

Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream.

(bung, bung, bung, bung.....)

Mr. Sandman ([male voice:] Yesss?) bring us a dream

Give him a pair of eyes with a "come-hither" gleam

Give him a lonely heart like Pagliacci

And lots of wavy hair like Liberace

Mr Sandman, someone to hold

Would be so peachy before we're too old

So please turn on your magic beam

Mr Sandman, bring me dream

Bring me a dream

(bung, bung, bung, bung....)

Hey, Sandman, bring me a dream

Make him the cutest that I've ever seen

Give him the word that I'm not a rover

Then tell him that his lonesome nights are over.

Sandman, Sandman I'm so alone

Don't have nobody here I can call my own

So, please, please, please why don't you turn on your magic beam

Mr. Sandman, bring us, oh please please please bring us a dream.

Bring me a dream, bring me a dream, bring me a dream, bring us a dream
