A kiss to build a dream on  (lyrics)

Yes, give me a kiss to build a dream on
And my imagination will thrive upon that kiss
Sweetheart, I ask no more than this
A kiss to build a dream on, yes

Give me a kiss before you leave me
And my imagination will feed my hungry heart
Leave me one thing before we part
A kiss to build a dream on

When I'm alone with my fancies, I'll be with you
Weaving romances, making believe they're true

Beh, give me your lips for just a moment
And my imagination will make that moment live
Give me what you alone can give
A kiss to build a dream on

 

When I'm alone with my fancies, yes I'll be with you
Oh, weaving romances, ya da da making believe they're true

Beh, lend me your chops for just a moment
And my imagination will make that moment live

Yes, give me what you alone can give
A kiss to build a dream on
