The sheet music:


Lyrics

  1. I’ve been dreaming dreams of childhood
    And the games we used to play
    When my heart knew only sunshine
    That was shining thro’ the live-long day
    Now I know my constant dreaming
    Always takes me back to yesterday;
    If your heart is yearning
    Join me in returning
    Come, and I will show you the way

Refrain
Meet me tonight in Bubble Land
So far away from Trouble Land
Where there is lots of joy
That is waiting for each girl and boy
Hearts break like bubbles in the air
But there we’ll never know a care
Let all our troubles fade like bubbles
Meet me in Bubble Land

  1. You can make this wond’rous journey
    Go to Bubble Land tonight
    Only you must be real certain
    Your heart’s beating in a way that’s right
    Bubble land was made for lovers
    Those who’d leave their grieving far behind
    There is no despair there,
    Pleasure’s everywhere there
    Joy’s the only thing that you’ll find
