Dream, dream, dream, dream
Dream, 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
Dream, 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
Dream

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
Dream, dream, dream, dream
Dream

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
Dream, dream, dream, dream
Dream, dream, dream, dream

And when the date is over and were at her front door
When I kiss her good night I’ll holler more more more

CATHY'S CLOWN - 05/05/1960
7 weeks at #1 - 18 weeks on chart

Don’t want your love anymore
Don’t want your kisses, that’s for sure
I die each time I hear this sound
Here he comes, that’s Cathy’s clown

I’ve gotta stand tall, you know a man can’t crawl
But when he knows you tell lies and he hears ‘em passin’ by
He’s not a man at all

Don’t want your love anymore
Don’t want your kisses, that’s for sure
I die each time I hear this sound
Here he comes, that’s Cathy’s clown

When you see me shed a tear and you know that it’s sincere
Don'tcha think it’s kinda sad that you’re treatin’ me so bad
Or don’t you even care

Don’t want your love anymore
Don’t want your kisses, that’s for sure
I die each time I hear this sound
Here he comes, that’s Cathy’s clown

That’s Cathy’s clown
That’s Cathy’s clown
That’s Cathy’s clown

I want you to tell me why you walked out on me
I’m so lonesome every day
I want you to know that since you walked out on me
Nothin’ seems to be the same old way

Think about the love that burns within my heart for you
The good times we had before you went away, oh me
Walk right back to me this minute
Bring your love to me, don’t send it
I’m so lonesome every day

I want you to tell me why you walked out on me
I’m so lonesome every day
I want you to know that since you walked out on me
Nothin’ seems to be the same old way

Think about the love that burns within my heart for you
The good times we had before you went away, oh me
Walk right back to me this minute
Bring your love to me, don’t send it
I’m so lonesome every day

I’m so lonesome every day
I’m so lonesome every day

On a weekend pass I wouldn’t have had time
To get home and marry that baby of mine
So I went to the chaplain and he authorized
Me to send for my ebony eyes

My ebony eyes was coming to me
From out of the skies on Flight 12-03
In an hour or two I would whisper I do
To my beautiful ebony eyes

The plane was way overdue, so I went inside to the airlines desk and I said Sir
I wonder why 12-03 is so late He said Aww, they probably took off late
Or they may have run into some turbulent weather and had to alter their course
I went back outside and I waited at the gate and I watched the beacon light from the
control tower as it whipped through the dark ebony skies as if it were searching for
(my ebony eyes) And then came the announcement over the loudspeaker
Would those having relatives or friends on flight number 12-03 please report to the
chapel across the street at once

Then I felt a burning break deep inside
And I knew the heavenly ebony skies
Had taken my life’s most wonderful prize
My beautiful ebony eyes

If I ever get to heaven I’ll bet
The first angel I’ll recognize
She’ll smile at me and I know she will be
My beautiful ebony eyes

TEMPTATION - 20/07/1961
2 weeks at #1 - 15 weeks on chart

Yay yay yay yeah Yay yay yay yeah Yay yay yay yeah

You came, I was alone
I should have known
You were temptation
You sighed, leading me on
I should have known
You were temptation

It would be thrilling, if you were willing
But if it can never be, well then pity me

You were born to be kissed
I can't resist, you are temptation
(I'm yours, here is my heart)
(Take it and say we'll never part )
(I'm just a slave, only a slave)

Yay yay yay yeah Yay yay yay yeah Yay yay yay yeah

Yay yay yay yeah Yay yay yay yeah Yay yay yay yeah

Yay yay yay yeah Yay yay yay yeah Yay yay yay yeah
