Oh baby mine, oh baby mine CHORUS: Oh baby mine I get so lonely when I dream about you Can't live without you That's why I dream about you If I could only put my arms about you Life would be so fair If you would care We two could hug and kiss And never tire, I'm on fire You are my one desire I get so lonely when I dream about you Why can't you be there Tossin and turning without slumber Holding you it seems I give you kisses without number But only in my dreams CHORUS REPEAT LAST VERSE CHORUS Oh baby mine, Life would be so fair Oh baby mine, Life would be so fair
