lyrics

Sometimes I feel like the loneliest girl in the world
bluer than blue and sadder than any sad girl
where has the love gone that made me believe life was sweet?
and where do you go when you just want to go back to sleep?

Dream world, dream world, where all the lonely hearts meet
mean world, mean world, people asleep in the street

Nighttime is coming and soon with it merciful sleep
love that is lost in the day into dreams soon will creep
life is a dream so they say and they may well be right
sometimes I feel like this whole world is blacker than night

Dream world, dream world, where hapless dreamers retreat
mean world, mean world, people asleep in the street

I’ve got a clean bed and plenty of good food to eat
I’ve got a family and friends and hot water and heat
how dare I despair of my loneliness, I have no right
sweet dreams to all who are out on the mean streets tonight!
