And now we dive into the Roy Orbison song, “In Dreams,” recorded in 1988–Black and White Night.

We need to provide the lyrics so that once again, you can read and listen to the music. They don’t make ’em like this anymore.

A candy colored clown they call the sandman
Tiptoes to my room every night
Just to sprinkle star dust and to whisper
“Go to sleep, everything is all right”

I close my eyes then I drift away
Into the magic night, I softly say
A silent prayer like dreamers do
Then I fall asleep to dream my dreams of you

In dreams I walk with you
In dreams I talk to you
In dreams you’re mine all the time
We’re together in dreams, in dreams

But just before the dawn
I awake and find you gone
I can’t help it, I can’t help it if I cry
I remember that you said goodbye

It’s too bad it only seems
It only happens in my dreams
Only in dreams
In beautiful dreams.
