Текст песни I'd Like a Dream Like That - George Formby

I′ve always had ambitions to go upon the stage
Last night I went to bed and dreamt that I was all the rage
I felt a thrill, I dreamt I topped the bill
And a big revue part I could take
I'd like a dream like that when I′m awake
I danced with girls dressed up in strings of pearls
And all the strings started to break
I'd like a dream like that when I'm awake
It′s always so real I wake up and feel, delirious with delight
Shouting with all my might, Oh, what a wonderful night
One girl in fact she did a striptease act
And a liberty she tried to take
But I′d like a dream like that when I'm awake
Godiva′s ghost I saw at my bedpost, and she gave my shoulders a shake
I'd like a dream like that when I′m awake
It's Peeping Tom she said I′m hiding
From. So room for me you'd better make
I'd like a dream like that when I′m awake
It′s always so real I wake up and feel, delirious with delight
Shouting with all my might, Oh, what a wonderful night
My bare back ride gave me the cramp she cried
But I bet you can guess where I ache
I'd like a dream like that when I′m awake
