Sweet Dreams
Faron Young performs "Sweet Dreams "
"Sweet Dreams" or "Sweet Dreams (of You)" is a country ballad, which was written by Don Gibson. Gibson originally recorded the song in 1955; his version hit the top ten of Billboard's country chart, but was eclipsed by the success of a competing version by Faron Young. In 1960, after Gibson had established himself as a country music superstar, he released a new version as a single. This version also charted in the top ten on the country chart and also crossed over to the Billboard Hot 100, where it peaked at number ninety-three. The song has become a country standard, with other notable versions by Patsy Cline and Emmylou Harris.
In the summer of 1956 Faron Young recorded "Sweet Dreams" and took it all the way to #2 on the country charts. It was this version that garnered Gibson his first recognition as a talented songwriter.
Faron Young - Sweet Dreams lyrics
Sweet dreams of you
Every night I go through
Why can't I forget you
And start my life anew?
Instead of having
Sweet dreams about you
You don't love me it's plain
I should know you'll never wear my name.
I should hate you
The whole night through
Instead of having
Sweet dreams about you.
--- Instrumental ---
Sweet dreams of you
Dreams I know can't come true
Why can't I forget the past
Start loving someone new?
Instead of having
Sweet dreams about you
Sweet dreams about you.
You don't love me it's plain
I should know you'll never wear my name.
I should hate you
The whole night through
Instead of having
Sweet dreams about you...
