SWEET DREAMS (Don Gibson)
Performed by Emmylou Harris (from the album Elite Hotel); Capo on 1st fret
Sweet dreams of you
Every night I go through
Why can't I forget you and start my life anew
Instead of having sweet dreams about you
You don't love me, it's plain
I should have known you'll never wear my ring
I know I should hate you the whole night through
Instead of having sweet dreams about you
Sweet dreams of you
Things I know can't come true
Why can't I forget the past, start loving someone new
Instead of having sweet dreams about you
Performed by Elvis Costello (from the album Almost Blue)
Sweet dreams of you
Every night I go through
I should hate you, girl, the whole night through
Instead of having sweet dreams all about you
You don't love me, it's plain
I should have known you'd never share my name
Why can't I forget you, girl, start loving someone new
Instead of having sweet dreams all about you
Why can't I forget my past, start loving someone new
Instead of having sweet dreams all about you
Sweet dreams of you
Every night I go through
I should hate you, girl, the whole night through
Instead of having sweet dreams all about you
Instead of having sweet dreams about you
