lyrics

Make A Wish

Every day, He would come
Put a nickel in the old machine
Just to hear, her soft voice
Whispering that he would get his dream
Every day, just the same
He would wish to find a friend
Every day, all alone
She would tell him once again-

Make a wish! You will find
Everything you’re wishing for
Adventures in exotic lands
Wealth and fame and even more
Make a wish! You will get
Everything you’re dreaming of
Happiness will come to you
And you will find your love

Then one day, for a change
Before the nickel went in the machine
He looked at her, and smiled and said
Today I wish that you could have your dream
So take my wish, it is yours
She looked at him, and smiled
And said, I wish to be with you
And stay forever at your side

Make a wish! You will find
Everything you’re wishing for
Adventures in exotic lands
Wealth and fame and even more
Make a wish! You will get
Everything you’re dreaming of
Happiness will come to you
And you will find your love
