0:24There you stand in your dungarees
0:27Looking all grown up and so very pleased
0:30When you write your poems they have so much to say
0:34When you speak your dreams it takes my breath away
0:37You know I want to be a ball player
0:41A regular slugging fool
0:44But both I dreams must wait awhile
0:47Until we finish school
0:52And so you and I
0:55We watch our years go by
0:58We watch our sweet dreams fly
1:02Far away but maybe someday
1:06I don't know when
1:08But we will dream again
1:12And we'll be happy then
1:15Till our time just drifts away
1:23There you stand in your wedding dress
1:26You're so beautiful that I must confess
1:30I'm so proud you have chosen me
1:32When a doctor is what you want to be
1:36You know I want to be a painter girl
1:39A real artistic snob
1:42But I guess we'll have our children first
1:46You'll find a home I'll get a job
1:50And so you and I
1:53We watch our years go by
1:57We watch our sweet dreams fly
2:00Far away but maybe someday
2:05I don't know when
2:07But we will dream again
2:10And we'll be happy then
2:14Till our time just drifts away
2:22Listen to the seasons passing
2:25Listen to the wind blow
2:30Listen to the children laughing
2:33Where do broken dreams go
2:42There you stand in your tailored suit
2:45So many years gone by but you're still so cute
2:48You take the car to go and meet the bus
2:51When our grandchildren come to visit us
2:55You say you should have been a ballerina babe
2:58There are songs I should have sung
3:02But I guess our dreams have come and gone
3:05You've gotta dream when you are young
3:10And so you and I
3:12We watched our years go by
3:16We watched our sweet dreams fly
3:19Far away but maybe someday
3:23I don't know when
3:26But we will dream again
3:29And we'll be happy then
3:33Till our time just drifts away
3:51You and I
3:53We watch our years go by
3:56We watch our sweet dreams fly
3:59Far away but maybe someday
4:04I don't know when
4:06But we will dream again
4:09And we'll be happy then
4:13Till our time just drifts away
4:17You you and I
4:19We watch our years years go by
4:23We watch our sweet sweet dreams fly
4:26Far away but maybe someday
