It Shouldn't Happen to a Dream - Lyrics - Sarah Vaughan

Sarah Lois Vaughan was an American jazz singer, described by music critic Scott Yanow as having "one of the most wondrous voices of the 20th century."

Millions of stars Playing tag in the sky Soft little dreams Holding hands in your eyes So much at stake and then I wake up It shouldn't happen to a dream Light-fingered clouds Tuck the moon into bed I feel your lips Stand my heart on my head Then comes the ache Again I wake up It shouldn't happen to a dream The flowers get happy And dance down the lane The darkness no long is deep A cloudburst of moonbeams is falling like rain Each time you walk into my sleep Here comes the night cutting capers and again Just for a while you'll be with me and then The bubble will break Again I'll wake up It shouldn't happen to a dream Repeat the previous two verses.
