Little Lady Make Believe & Says My Heart - Eddie Cantor

Dressed up in a gown that trails on the floor

In a picture hat that your mommy wore

Living in a world that you never saw

My little lady make believe

What a pair of shoes for two tiny feet

What a pair of gloves the fingers don’t meet

Posing in a glass, your joy is complete

My little lady make believe

In your little arms the doll you unfold

Means the world and all to you

But you could never love the doll that you hold

Half as much as I love you, dear

Dream your little dreams and may they come true

May the coming years bring happiness, too

All my future dreams are wrapped up in you

My little lady make believe

Fall in love, fall in love says my heart

It’s romance, take a chance says my heart

But each time that I’m almost in your arms

This old school teacher brain of mine keeps ringing in false alarms

Then my head rules instead and I’m wise

To the scheme of that gleam in your eyes

Then I kiss and run, but the moment we’re apart

Oh, you fool, that was love

Says my heart

Dream your little dreams and may they come true

May the coming years bring happiness, too

All my future dreams are wrapped up in you

My little lady make believe
