Fats Waller — You Meet the Nicest People in Your Dreams lyrics

Lyrics

I’ve met some very nice people
Some very very very nice people
But you meet the nicest people
In your dreams.
It’s funny but it’s true
That’s where I first met you
And you’re the nicest, paradise-est
Thing I ever knew.
I’ve looked the universe over
From wacky Nagasaki to Dover
And now that we have met how sweet it seems.
I love you more the more I know you
Which only goes to show you
You meet the nicest people in your dreams.
