Carmen McRae - Tiptoe Gently Lyrics

Tiptoe gently through my dream,
Don't disturb my sleep,
#'Cause if I wake up
The romance will break up,
And dreams don't usually keep!

Walk on velvet through my mind,
Your footsteps might intrude,
And in the alarm
You might need my arm,
So please don't disturb the mood.

The scene we're playing
Seems bound for a happy end;
The things you're saying
Send my heart on an upward trend!

Tiptoe gently through my dream,
Tread with utmost care.
Don't go and mix it up,
Unless you can fix it up
For me to wake and find you there!

The scene we're playing
Seems bound for a happy end;
The things you're saying
Send my heart on an upward trend!

Tiptoe gently through my dream,
Tread with utmost care.
Don't go and mix it up,
Unless you can fix it up
For me to wake and find you there,
And find you there!
