Roy Orbison - In dreams

A SILENT PRAYER LIKE DREAMERS DO

Recordamos el aniversario natal del desaparecido cantante estadounidense Roy Orbison con una de sus más bellas composiciones, In dreams, canción editada en 1963 que se convirtió en un hit internacional, llegando al nº 7 en Billboard, al 6 en las listas británicas, al 1 en las australianas, etc. La película "Blue velvet" (1986) de David Lynch la volvió a poner de actualidad.

In dreams  (lyrics)

A candy-colored clown they call the sandman
Tiptoes to my room every night
Just to sprinkle stardust and to whisper

"Go to sleep, everything is all right"

I close my eyes, then I drift away
Into the magic night, I softly say
A silent prayer like dreamers do
Then I fall asleep to dream my dreams of you

In dreams I walk with you
In dreams I talk to you
In dreams you're mine all of the time
We're together in dreams, in dreams

But just before the dawn
I awake and find you gone
I can't help it, I can't help it if I cry
I remember that you said goodbye

It's too bad that all these things

can only happen in my dreams
Only in dreams
In beautiful dreams.
