As the name suggests, many of the songs have titles or lyrics referring to dreaming.

An interesting excerpt from the Richard Rodgers Wikipedia page: "After Doris Day recorded "I Have Dreamed" in 1961, he wrote to her and her arranger, James Harbert, that theirs was the most beautiful rendition of his song he had ever heard".
