My Dream Come True

I love to watch you sleeping,
All nestled in your bed;
As one arm rests across your chest --
The other by your head.
I hear you softly breathing
And a chill comes over me.
Without a sound I bend down
And gently kiss your cheek.
 
[Chorus]
I don’t know what you’re dreaming — 
But you’re my dream come true.
I can’t believe I’m standing here
And looking back at you.
I see your peaceful slumber smile
And wonder if I’m dreaming too.
I don’t know what you’re dreaming — 
But you’re my dream come true.
         
Your night light casts such shadows
Upon the moon-lit wall:
Your rocking horse is small — of course,
But now looks ten feet tall!
Is this the steed you ride on
When drifting off to sleep?
Your toy chest, there?  Can that be where
​Your secret treasures keep?
 
[Repeat chorus]
