Oh I used to be your baby, used to be your pride and joy
You used to take me dancing, just like any other boy
But now you've found another partner, and left me like a broken toy
Oh it's someone else you're taking, someone else you're playing to
Honey though I'm aching, know just what I have to do
If I can't have you when I'm waking
I'll go to sleep and dream I'm with you
Oh take me, take me, take me to the dreamer's ball
I'll be right on time and I'll dress so fine
You're gonna love me when you see me
I won't have to worry, take me, take me
Promise not to wake me 'till it's morning
It's all been true
(What you say about that hey honey?
You gonna take me to that dreamer's ball?)
(I'd like that, right on down forty-second street
Way down down town dreamer's town)
Oh take me take me take me, I'm your play thing now
You make my life worthwhile with the slightest smile
Or destroy me with a barely perceptible whisper
Gently take me remember I'll be dreaming of my baby
At the dreamer's ball
Take me, hold me, remember what you told me
You'd meet me at the dreamer's ball
I'll meet you at the dreamer's ball
You used to take me dancing, just like any other boy
But now you've found another partner, and left me like a broken toy
Oh it's someone else you're taking, someone else you're playing to
Honey though I'm aching, know just what I have to do
If I can't have you when I'm waking
I'll go to sleep and dream I'm with you
Oh take me, take me, take me to the dreamer's ball
I'll be right on time and I'll dress so fine
You're gonna love me when you see me
I won't have to worry, take me, take me
Promise not to wake me 'till it's morning
It's all been true
(What you say about that hey honey?
You gonna take me to that dreamer's ball?)
(I'd like that, right on down forty-second street
Way down down town dreamer's town)
Oh take me take me take me, I'm your play thing now
You make my life worthwhile with the slightest smile
Or destroy me with a barely perceptible whisper
Gently take me remember I'll be dreaming of my baby
At the dreamer's ball
Take me, hold me, remember what you told me
You'd meet me at the dreamer's ball
I'll meet you at the dreamer's ball
