Oh

 


yeah...slow dancing to this one...


BOOK OF DREAMS {Transcribed and researched by SpringsteenLyrics.com}

Album version


"BOOK OF DREAMS"


I'm standing in the backyard listening to the party inside

Tonight I'm drinking in the forgiveness this life provides

The scars we carry remain but the pain slips away it seems

Oh won't you baby be in my book of dreams


I'm watching you through the window with your girlfriends from back home

You're showing off your dress, there's laughter and a toast

From your daddy to the prettiest bride he's ever seen

Oh won't you baby be in my book of dreams


In the darkness my fingers slip across your skin, I feel your sweet reply

The room fades away and suddenly I'm way up high

Yeah just holding you to me as through the window the moonlight streams

Oh won't you baby be in my book of dreams


Now the ritual begins and 'neath the wedding garland we meet as strangers

Well the dance floor is alive with beauty, mystery and danger

We dance out 'neath the stars' ancient light into the darkening trees

Oh won't you baby be in my book of dreams
