Wishes
If you had whatever you wished for Wishes are but daytime dreams
The stars would shine by night And dreams can all come true
The moon would cast a silver glow If you wish for all these things
And all the world be light. Fate may grant them for you.
If you had whatever you wished for If you had whatever you wished for
The sun would shine by day Your troubles would all cease
Every man would have his freedom The world would live in harmony
Every heart be light and gay. Yes the world would live in peace.
