Lyrics When The Children Are Asleep - Rodgers and Hammerstein

When The Children Are Asleep

When the children are asleep we sit and dream,
The things that every other dad and mother dream.
When the children are asleep and lights are low,
If I still love you the way I love you today,
You’ll pardon my sayin', I told you so…
When the children are asleep, I’ll dream with you
We’ll think what fun we have had and be glad
That it’s all came true
When the children are asleep we sit and dream,
Dream all alone…
The things that every other dad and mother dream
Dreams that won’t be interrupted…
When the children are asleep and lights are low
Lo and behold…
