Bram Tchaikovsky – Girl Of My Dreams
Judy was an American girl
She came in the morning
With the U.S. mail
Didn’t say nothing
But she looked
Pretty good to meGolden hair
That shined so bright
Loving eyes that
Seem out of sightShe could keep the
Secrets that we shared
In my world of dreamsAnd a man needs something
When he ain’t got
Nothing to hang on to
And there ain’t no telling
When I’ll feel like
Yelling I love youOoh, it gets lonely in the night
When there ain’t no one around
Ooh, she makes me feel all right
Get my feet right off the groundShe’s the girl of my dreams
She’s the girl of my dreamsJudy does what I ask her to
She makes me happy
When I feel blue
She stares with
The eyes of a child
And gets me to my knees
She came in the morning
With the U.S. mail
Didn’t say nothing
But she looked
Pretty good to meGolden hair
That shined so bright
Loving eyes that
Seem out of sightShe could keep the
Secrets that we shared
In my world of dreamsAnd a man needs something
When he ain’t got
Nothing to hang on to
And there ain’t no telling
When I’ll feel like
Yelling I love youOoh, it gets lonely in the night
When there ain’t no one around
Ooh, she makes me feel all right
Get my feet right off the groundShe’s the girl of my dreams
She’s the girl of my dreamsJudy does what I ask her to
She makes me happy
When I feel blue
She stares with
The eyes of a child
And gets me to my knees
Her heart, it
Never beats in time
Except when it’s
Beating close to mine
I keep her from my friends
Locked away with my fantasies
Never beats in time
Except when it’s
Beating close to mine
I keep her from my friends
Locked away with my fantasies
And a man needs something
When he ain’t got
Nothing to hang on to
And there ain’t no telling
When I’ll feel like
Yelling I love you
When he ain’t got
Nothing to hang on to
And there ain’t no telling

Oooh, she makes me feel all right
Get my feet right off the ground
When there ain’t no one around
Oooh, she makes me feel all right
Get my feet right off the ground
She’s the girl of my dreams
She’s the girl of my dreams
She’s the girl of my dreams
She’s the girl of my dreams
She’s the girl of my dreams
She’s the girl of my dreams…
She’s the girl of my dreams
She’s the girl of my dreams
She’s the girl of my dreams
She’s the girl of my dreams
She’s the girl of my dreams…

I never heard of him/them until the past few weeks. I love the song though. This is one of those songs that I’m so glad I found… new/old music for me.

I remember hearing this a lot on the radio in the early 1980s before MTV existed – this was sort of a hit – played on rock stations at the time.

The guitar part sounds a little like Born To Run.
