I Remember You dixie's dream
Bette Midler Song Lyrics





from the album For the Boys Soundtrack
A duet with James Cann

Announcer: The stars of our show, and America's shiekest couple, Eddie Sparks and Dixie Leonard!

James:
I remember you.
Bette:
I'd like to say that you're in my dreams.
James:
You're the one who made my dreams come true
Bette:
You're usually dead,
James:
a few
Bette:
without a head,
James:
kisses ago.
Bette:
and lots of natives are picking their teeth with your bones.
James:
I remember, too,
Bette:
Oh, what a dream!
James:
a distant bell,
Bette:
It comes at night and taunts me,
James:
and stars that fell
Bette:
and, like your jokes, it haunts me until
James:
like rain out of the blue.
Bette:
I'm blue as your face as the last breath leaves you.
James:
When my life is through,
Bette:
I'll jump for joy.
James:
and the angels ask me to recall
Bette:
and when Winchell asks me to recall
who's a chump and a heel.
James:
the thrill of it all,
Bette:
Who's the biggest schlemeil?
Both: Then I will tell them I remember . . .
James:
So, uh, it's my birthday comin' up.
Bette:
Yeah, I know, Eddie.
James:
But, what do you give a guy that's got everything?
Bette:
Uh, penicillin?
James:
Hmmm, hey Dix? You ever been married?
Bette:
Oh, yeah, Eddie, twice!
James:
Children?
Bette:
No, silly! Grown men! Tell me, Eddie, what's the most romantic thing a woman ever said to you?
James:
Are you sure you're not a cop?
Then I will tell them I remember . . . you.
Bette:
You
James:
and you.
