So light, so smooth, so starry. A little lullaby that makes you want to tuck yourself in and dream.

And what better dream is there than a dream of the one you love? It’s the perfect way to end the day. Okay, sitting in a bistro by the Seine with a glass of wine is pretty good, too. But you get the idea…sweet dreams.

We’ll be singing Dream a Little Dream of Me in our next concert performance, Sun, Moon & Stars, at 1:30 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 4, at St. Katharine of Siena Church in Wayne. Come out and join us. We’ll have you dreaming in no time.
