       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.
