(Words by Jean Havez, Music by Irving Berlin) [Verse:] When darkness comes and the soldier Goes to the land of dreams Comes stealing some little angel Borne by the starlight beams Soothing all of his care With some beautiful prayer Blessings numbering while he's slumbering So peacefully there [Refrain:] Dream on, little soldier boy May a golden vision fill your heart with joy May all your happiest hours come back in dreams May sunshine follow the show'rs with brightest beams Wander with a peaceful mind In the land of fancy with the girl you left behind Sleep on whatever befalls Till dawn when reveille calls Dream on, little soldier boy [2] You've work to do on the morrow Dear little soldier lad Grim war may add to your sorrow You may be sick and sad Even though you may fall Sleep, forgetting it all Resting cozily, dreaming rosily Awaiting your call
