[SANDY]
The man of my dreams
Is a dream of a man
Who walks and talks with the stars
When he looks in my eyes
Does he ever see eyes?
No, he sees Venus or Mars
He lives in a castle of solid clouds
His streets are paved with silk
He acts like a man full of pink champagne
When it's only homogenized milk
[SYLVESTER]
I may not be a dream come true
But I'm hers
And she's mine
And she's stuck;
And what can she do?
[SANDY]
Here's to all your dreams
Here's to your illusions;
May they always lеad you into my arms
Here's to all your hopes
And sweet confusions
That charm you into seeing my charms
Hеre's to that trick of romance
That beguiles with a smile or a glance;
As long as you're in this trance
I stand a chance with you
So here's to "love is blind,"
Here's to your illusions
Stay enchanted please
Put my heart at ease
For all the years to come
[SYLVESTER, spoken]
I don't know why I'm beating my brains out being ambitious - I've got everything I want right now! Look at that nose - cuter than a thousand shares of AT&T!
[sung]
Here's to that trick of romance
That beguiles with a smile or a glance;
As long as you're in this trance
I stand a chance with you
[BOTH]
So here's to "love is blind,"
Here's to your illusions
[SANDY]
Stay enchanted please
[SYLVESTER]
Put my heart at ease
[BOTH]
For all the years to come
For all the years to come!
