“Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me.”

Cass Elliot (1941–1974) American singer

"Dream a Little Dream of Me" (1931), was one of Cass Elliot's biggest hits but the lyrics by Gus Kahn were written many years before her definitive rendition; the music by Fabian Andre & Wilbur Schwandt.

Do noble things, not dream them, all day long:
And so make life, death, and that vast for-ever
One grand, sweet song.”
