Last night I dreamed of Elvis 
He was standing in the light
Looking radiant and beautiful
Just like he did in life

I said, “E it’s good to see you
Look s’ healthy and at peace”
He said, “You know I’m really happy here
How’s things in Tennessee?”

Well I told him we all missed him
That the whole world loved the king
He said, “You know if things were different
I’d ask you to wear my ring”

I said, “El, ah, can I call you El?”
“Ah, Elvis, El, or E”
I said, “Am I just dreamin
Or were you just flirtin with me?” (Uh-huh-huh)

Woah-ho, I dreamed about Elvis
Dreamed about Elvis
Dreamed about Elvis last night
We sang Don’t be Cruel and All Shook Up
Heartbreak Hotel and That’s Alright
Let Me Be Your Teddy Bear,
And Blue Hawaii too
Jailhouse Rock, and Viva Las Vegas
Kentucky moon of blue (Blue Moon of Kentucky)

Then he curled his lip and said
“You know you remind me a little of Monroe”
“Oh,” and I said, “Really? Marilyn?”
And he said, “No, Bill”
“Bill, the King of Bluegrass?” (Uh-huh-huh)

I dreamed about Elvis
Dreamed about Elvis 
Dreamed about Elvis last night (Uh-huh-huh)

I dreamed about Elvis
Dreamed about Elvis
Dreamed about El las’night (Oh yeah)
And the dream went on

And I dreamed I said in real life
“You sang so many songs
And I always thought I’d like to hear you
Sing one of my own”

He said, “I almost did one of yours
The one about true love
The “I will always love you” song
But the colonel screwed that up”

Well, he sure did
But after all this is my dream
It would be a dream come true
If maybe, you could sing it now
And let me sing with you
And we sang

I will always love you
I will always love you

I hope life (I hope life)
Treats you kind (will treat you kind)
And I hope (I hope)
You have all that you’ve dreamed of (you have all you’ve dreamed of)

I wish you joy (I wish you joy)
And happiness (and happiness)
But above all this
I wish you love (I wish you love)

And I will always love you (I will always)
I will always love you (Oh, I will always love you)
Oh, then I woke up

I dreamed about Elvis
Dreamed about Elvis
Dreamed about Elvis last night
We sang Blue Suede Shoes
N' Love me Tender,
Burnin’ Love, Are you lonesome tonight (are you lonesome tonight)

Dreamed about Elvis
Dreamed about Elvis
Dreamed about Elvis last night
(Uh-huh-huh)
I dreamed about Elvis
Dreamed about Elvis 
Then He faded into the light
(thank you, thank you very much)
