River of dreams take me with you tonight 
Lying in your arms we'll drift to 
Islands of wonder that gleam and glow 
Under the stars 
As we glide through the dark 
To the heart of the night 

River of dreams gently hold me again 
I remember all you told me 
All of the secrets you whispered as we crept away 
From the daylight and melted back into the night 

Was I awake or did I dream 
The kiss of waves 
The silver slipstream 
That tumbles as it turns again towards the sea 

River of dreams softly flowing away 
Let me follow where you are going 
And make me a part of you 
Deep in the heart of you 
Let my reflection be clear 
In the water of life 
That tumbles as it turns again towards the night
